Ask a typical citizen about ICT policy and s/he will probably reply with a comment like ‘what’s that?’ or ‘who cares?’ Getting involved in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) policy-making has not been a priority for most people, even those who are generally active in other areas of public policy. It often seems removed from our daily experience, and technically complicated. Yet new communications media are becoming so important that we cannot continue to ignore them. This book from the Association for Progressive Communications takes the mystery out of ICT policy and makes it easier to understand. Key issues are presented and explained clearly and concisely, and a basis is provided for further investigation.
