Description

Explore the complex relationship between technological advancement and global progress in this volume from the Routledge Studies in Development and Society series. While new information technology is often seen as a quick fix for economic and social development, this book examines the reality behind the hype. It addresses why rapid technological growth does not always lead to higher levels of development in many parts of the world. This text provides a deep look into the persistent gaps in education, health, food security, and infrastructure. By investigating issues such as access, privilege, literacy, and training, the book offers a realistic perspective on how technology impacts society. It also considers the environmental and health effects of information technologies within the developing world. This is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in the intersection of sociology, anthropology, and global development studies.
