{"product_id":"globalization-technology-diffusion-and-gender-rekha-pande-9781466600201","title":"Globalization, Technology Diffusion and Gender Disparity: Social Impacts of ICTs","description":"In an era characterized by data globalization, there is, paradoxically, a shortage of literature on the social impact of globalization, technology diffusion, and gender disparity. The new information and knowledge society may, in fact, aggravate the development and poverty gap instead of closing it. The cultural construction of knowledge exacerbates class, ethnic, and gender divides, and ICT has contributed to this problem. Globalization, Technology Diffusion and Gender Disparity: Social Impacts of ICTs discusses theoretical aspects of gender issues in ICT and presents a number of case studies from various countries. Covering topics such as social networking, ICT use among women, the digital divide, and theoretical approaches to gender gaps and ICT, this book aims to provide a strong foundation on ICT and digital equity that will be useful to a broad audience comprised of students, researchers, and policymakers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rekha Pande\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1466600209\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781466600201\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Information Science Reference\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/31\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 350\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.20h x 8.70w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2012 pg. 84","brand":"Rekha Pande","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43936090358015,"sku":"9781466600201","price":195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_0f3da363-5fee-45b6-858f-ac744c433feb.jpg?v=1681423531","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/globalization-technology-diffusion-and-gender-rekha-pande-9781466600201","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
