This book examines the role that Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) play in growth and economic development promotion, specifically for developing countries. It highlights multiple methodologies for quantifying the impact of ICTs. This includes quantitative and qualitative methods, but also novel, conclusive and informative methodological approaches for measuring ICTs influence on economic development.

ICTs bring new business models, innovations, capital-labor substitution, improved goods and services to developing markets. Because they can spread rapidly, with little cost and require minimal skills for usage, ICTs create a solid background for social and economic gains. They enable significant reduction in information asymmetries, which improves access to economic activities for multitude of agents, fostering participation, inter alias in labor market of disadvantaged societal groups. After almost two decades of rapid diffusion of ICT in developing world, this book seeks to assess the real benefits and consequences of ICTs adoption in developing countries. The chapters use broad, real-world based evidence to provide a better understanding of the precise nature of new technologies and their impact of the country s economy and society.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討資訊與通信技術（ICT）在增長和經濟發展促進中的角色，特別是針對發展中國家。它強調了多種量化ICT影響的方法論，包括定量和定性方法，以及新穎、具結論性和資訊性的測量ICT對經濟發展影響的方法。書中突顯了不同發展中國家的趨勢、觀點和成功案例。ICT為發展市場帶來了新的商業模式、創新、資本-勞動替代以及改善的商品和服務。由於ICT可以迅速擴散，成本低且使用所需技能最低，這為社會和經濟收益創造了堅實的基礎。它們顯著減少了資訊不對稱，改善了眾多參與者對經濟活動的接觸，促進了弱勢社會群體在勞動市場中的參與。經過近二十年ICT在發展中國家的快速擴散，本書旨在評估ICT在發展中國家採用的實際利益和後果。各章節使用廣泛的、基於現實世界的證據，以提供對新技術的精確性質及其對國家經濟和社會影響的更好理解。
