商品描述

Readers seeking to gain a handle on the internet's global expansion will find this book rich in scholarly foundations combined with cutting-edge discussion of emerging ICTs and services and the complex societal contexts in which they are embedded. To explore possibilities to the fullest extent, a sociotechnical systems approach is employed, focusing on the interplay of technical, social, cultural, political, and economic dynamics to explore alternative futures (ones that are not part of the dominant discourse about the internet).

These shared perspectives are not well addressed elsewhere in current discussions. Awareness of these dynamics, and the fluidity of the future, is important, as humankind moves forward into the uncertain future. Due to the sociotechnical complexity of the Internet, policymakers, businesspeople, and academics worldwide have struggled to keep abreast of developments. This volume's approach is intended to stimulate dialogue between academics and practitioners on a topic that will affect most aspects of human life in the near-term future.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

讀者若想了解網際網路的全球擴展,將會發現這本書結合了豐富的學術基礎與對新興資訊通信技術(ICTs)及服務的前沿討論,並探討它們所嵌入的複雜社會背景。為了充分探索可能性,本書採用了社會技術系統的方法,專注於技術、社會、文化、政治和經濟動態之間的相互作用,以探討替代未來(即不屬於主流網際網路話語的未來)。

這些共同的觀點在當前的討論中並未得到充分的關注。了解這些動態及未來的流動性是重要的,因為人類正向不確定的未來邁進。由於網際網路的社會技術複雜性,全球的政策制定者、商業人士和學者們一直在努力跟上發展的步伐。本書的方式旨在促進學術界與實務界之間的對話,這個主題將在不久的將來影響人類生活的各個方面。
