Strategies and architecture of the electronic global village

Abstract

This article presents the aggregated architecture of the electronic global village with its components of global culture, information societies, information economies, wired cities, global marketplace, information utilities, and cross‐cultural communication. Goals and strategies for each component are formulated. Analysis of the functional architecture illustrates a key role of electronic highways and teleports as they interconnect the wired globe and the wired nation with the wired city via computer networks. Issues of the globalization process discussed are: the electronic frontier, to build or not build, and to inform or not to inform. A future option of programmed, democratic, global knowledge is mentioned.
