The New Economy in East Asia and the Pacific - 10

This book sets out the problems of measuring the effects of technological change on economic progress by using the internet in the Asia-Pacific region as a case study.

Corporate and industry experience, including changing business organization and new regulatory issues are explored as well as policy issues such as the digital divide and the approach to e-commerce in the WTO.

Using several industry case studies the contributors compare the IT experience in North America with a number of countries in Asia and the Pacific.
