Fighting Time!
| |
| Do you feel you’re in a constant battle with time? Does time seem to be winning, no matter which technology, process, and system one uses?

Abstract - E-COMMERCE FOR DEVELOPMENT: PROSPECTS AND POLICY ISSUES
| |
| In this paper, we analyse the potential contribution of the Internet and its commercial
application to the development process in poor countries. In historical perspective, the
Internet has diffused at a far faster rate than earlier generations of communications
technology: from 1990 to early 2000, the estimated number of Internet users grew more
than tenfold to roughly 300 million, affecting the way in which people communicate with
each other, acquire information, learn, do business, and interact culturally. Our particular
focus is on the opportunities e-commerce offers to small-scale entrepreneurs in developing
countries and the challenges they face in exploiting e-commerce’s potential. |
