Chapter Chapter 2 in Seeking Transformation Through Information Technology, 2011, pp 21-87 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Brazil can more effectively harness ICT to increase competitiveness, reduce inequality, and perfect its democracy – goals that most Brazilians espouse. This chapter ­presents evidence of the importance of leadership and a broadly shared vision in order to drive coordination of e-development policies and programs, leverage local innovations and lessons of experience, and scale up successes for a large, diverse, and democratic country.
