[governance] Africa, ICT and electricity

[Milton L Mueller]

From: Milton L Mueller [mailto:mueller at syr.edu] 
What this does mean is that radio spectrum management policies in Africa and other developing countries become critical aspects of the internet access debate.

Addendum: 

and of course David G. is right on that you can’t even think about WiMax, WiFi or whatever until you have a functioning, reliable power grid. I have always argued that ICT development is driven by broader, systemic economic development and cannot be considered in isolation.
