Lee Rainie, Director of Internet and Technology Research at the Pew Research Center, presented this material on October 14, 2020 at a gathering sponsored by the International Institute of Communications. He described the most recent Center public opinion surveys since mid-March, covering the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, racial justice protests that began in the summer, and the final stages of the 2020 presidential election campaign. He particularly examined how and why people are using the internet in the midst of multiple national crises and their concerns about digital divide and homework gap issues. And he covered how the Center has researched the impact of misinformation in recent years.

Lee Rainie, Director of Internet and Technology Research at the Pew Research Center, presented this material on October 29, 2020 to scholars, policy makers and civil society advocates convened by New York University’s Governance Lab (GovLab). He described findings from two canvassings of hundreds of technology and democracy experts that captured their views about the future of democracy and the future of social and civic innovation by the year 2030. Among other subjects, the experts looked at the impact of misinformation, “techlash” and trust in government institutions.

Will blockchain emerge as a tool to break the poverty chain in the Global South?eraser Juan José Calderón
Will blockchain emerge as a tool to break the poverty chain in the Global South?. Nir Kshetri
ABSTRACT
Just like its recent predecessors, blockchain – also known as the
distributed ledger technology – is considered to have the potential
to cause major economic, political and social transformations in the
Global South. The visible effects of this technology are already being
noted there. We present early evidence linking the use of blockchain in
overcoming some economic, social and political challenges facing the
Global South. The article highlights the key applications and uses of
blockchain in developing countries. It demonstrates how blockchain
can help promote transparency, build trust and reputation, and
enhance efficiency in transactions. The article looks at opportunities
and key triggers for blockchain diffusion in these countries. It also
delves into challenges and obstacles that developing economies are
likely to encounter in the use of blockchain.

The Impact of ICT on Chinese State Council
The world has been changed dramatically for last 30 years. Things that on body would expect in the past are taking place every day. Some hot topics that people used to focus on have been replaced by some new topics. Among all these topics, ICT namely information communication technologies is attracting more and more people’s attention. As we all know that ICT is impacting nearly all aspects of our life and here I adopt the economic development as the breakthrough point, and in turn other aspects is being expanded. This thesis will mainly discuss on the impact of ICT on Chinese State Council.
The State Council of The people's Republic of China, is the executive body of the highest organ of state power, is the highest organ of state administration. The function of the state council covers many aspects for the society, such as the draft of constitution and laws, the development of economy and also the culture and education and so forth. And ICT has impacted almost every aspect of the origination.
First, the dissemination of information has been changed. ICT is a effective tool of political communication, because it has more advantages than face-to-face communication. The ICT disseminate information to the whole society, helps all the citizens to obtain information about the current political situation, become "known citizens", providing information for the foundation of its political participation. And also this would be impact of public opinion. ICT is not only the performance of public opinion channel, and may utilize extensive and in-depth coverage of specific events, attracts public attention to the event, and thus mobilize the whole society. Thus make as many people as possible to react on the current topic comment.
In the old days, the communication technology in China is not less developed. In some of the rural areas, there are even not a telephone or fax, let alone internet service. The information dissemination is mainly depends on face to face communication or speakers. There are certainly many limitations of these tools. You may not find the person you want to talk to or when you broadcast your information in the radio speaker, some one may just doing something and cannot listen to what you say. Thus they miss the information. That’s why a lot of people just break the laws due to the lack of knowledge of laws and regulations in the country. They may not participate in the politics and execute their own right or do their own duty. But nowadays, with the development of information communication technologies, there are many different channels to ...

How open data and social media can work together to solve some of government's big problems. (Presented to the California Democratic Party Internet Caucus at Stanford University, Feb. 5, 2011.)
Written by Digital Brand, this paper seeks to explain the genesis and evolution of the concept of “open” government within the context of changing forms of government within the web-driven world, a world where emerging web technologies are empowering the citizen as never before, providing access to vast quantities of information which, despite being presented out of context and often in a complex format, is nonetheless available and freely open to use and reuse.
