Review: "Drawing from the detailed case studies of India and five ASEAN countries, this book establishes the complementary role of innovation system and trade regime in promoting the production and use of ICT and draws lessons for other developing countries. Apart from highlighting the plausible directions of change in the current multilateral and regional initiatives in ICT, it calls for an e-South Framework Agreement to enable developing countries to catch up with the ongoing ICT revolution by harnessing the ICT capabilities in select developing countries."--BOOK JACKET.
