'Connecting ICTs to Development' highlights over fifteen years of
IDRC-supported research in the field through its Information and
Communication Technology for Development (ICT4D) program.
Based on a policy-making theoretical framework and on the recent
experiences of 10 developing countries, this study explores the
factors that lead to the success or failure of telecommunications
reform. It provides universal conclusions that might help predict
the success or failure of telecommunications policies, such as,
privatization and liberalization, in other nations that are moving
towards reform. This book is an original contribution to our
understanding of the rapid and often complex transformations in
telecommunications policies. It defies previous assumptions about
conditions for success and failure of policy implementation.
Although numerous publications deal with telecommunications policy
reform in Europe or the United States, little has been written
about it in the developing world. This book fills the gap and will
be invaluable for academics, policy makers, and others concerned
with communications, economic development, and international
business.
