Abstract:

Even though the information revolution is usually traced back to the 1960s in the United States with the convergence of ICT, it was only in the last two decades that these technologies diffused to most developing societies around the globe, allowing interactive and simultaneous transfer of information in real time. And it was not until the mid-1990s that the Internet became a worldwide phenomenon.
