- W155446952 abstract "The Internet provides less benefit to the underdeveloped countries than to the developed ones. This holds true even when network access is similar in both countries. We argue that network access is not enough to reap full benefit from the Internet; therefore, simple universal access to the Internet in underdeveloped countries is not enough to close the breach of the Digital Divide. Keyword: Internet, Digital Divide, Pragmatic information, Semantic information, Information sciences Agriculture, industrialization, and informatization revolutions are with no doubt historical productivity landmarks. Tribes and societies can be divided based on the fact that they have or have not accomplished each of those landmarks. We still can find a few tribes that never learned agriculture; tribes merely dedicated to hunting and gathering. Some of these tribes can still be found deep into the Amazon. Their productivity barely covers the basic alimentary needs of the individual and that of their young children. On the other hand, the productivity of agricultural tribes covers the requirements of more children, for a longer period of time, and that of a few relatives that cannot work due to their old age or other physical impediments. And in some cases, it even extends to cover the necessities of another class of people or cast among those tribes that instead of physically working in the field they dedicate themselves to intellectual work. Intellectual work (observations, research, planning, and leadership) that derives in higher levels of overall productivity from those doing the physical labor. Industrialized societies increased their overall productivity by several orders of magnitude in comparison to agricultural ones (16). Societies that are now undergoing the information revolution are advancing yet at even higher orders of magnitude. Unfortunately, with those great leaps accomplished by a few societies, the breach between them and those that have not yet accomplished the prior stages is becoming larger and larger. A breach that is not only limited to productivity but also to culture and forms of social organization (3, 4)." @default.
