IST/JANUS Workshop: Knowledge Society Development Paths in
Europe
Brussels, Charlemagne Building, European Commission
While the earlier JANUS workshops focused on ICT related or enabled phenomena of the information society, such as eGovernment and the Digital Divide, this final workshop goes beyond this ‘inside the information society’ perspective. It will look into different paths of economic development in the Knowledge Society today and in the long run. The central idea behind the theory of alternative development paths is the possibility that regions, countries or even continents might be better off by pursuing paths of development that are not specifically based on high ICT penetration. In such an approach, policy might place less emphasis on the common Information Society pillars, such as ICT infrastructure, eBusiness and eWork.
