Abstract

With the explosion of public awareness of the Internet in the early 1990s, much attention has been focused on ways in which these new technologies can be used in developing nations. Some of the primary proponents of these initiatives include the World Bank, The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) and the Inter American Development Bank. The major themes include ways in which the Internet and electronic commerce can be harnessed for development, impediments to rapid diffusion of Internet technologies and success stories in small and medium companies.
