Information Technologies and International Development - required

Society. In the printed issue we have collected 37 essays creating a
unique resource for scholars, activists, and practitioners trying to
understand the substance and the politics of the Summit. In addition, we
are offering an online resource containing an additional 82 papers along
with interactive spaces for you to add your own reactions and critiques.

Contributors to the volume and webspace represent the widest possible
range of perspectives, regions and professions, from the global South
and the North, from sharp critics to ardent supporters, from observers
based in government, the private sector, civil society, universities and
international organizations. The essays are grouped by broad category â?"
including Context and Setting; Critical Themes; Normative Frameworks;
Voices and Participation; Globalization and Development; and Outcomes
and Paths to Tunis. Contributors include Nancy J. Hafkin, Nicholas
Negroponte, Hamadoun Touré, Hans Klein, Claudia Padovani, Derrick L.
