Sumario:This book investigates the process of negotiation between societies and information and communication technologies (ICTs); how ICTs evolve in this global world, transforming the organization of everyday life as well as the production of technologies. It analyzes how societies mediate the quantity and quality of technologies needed and how these technologies are in turn metabolized by societies. In the globalization process, technological products that originate from European cultures undergo a resemanticization process by Asian users. Adaptation and transformation of the meaning of ICTs generate a new process of creation of services and functions. This book is a useful reference for readers who wants to understand and implement these services and functions.
