Notes:
Presented at the World Conference on Agricultural Information and IT (IAALD-AFITA-WCCA2008), Tokyo University of Agriculture, Japan, August 2008. 11 pages.
Author examines the challenges and limitation of recent ICT developments, especially when "for millions of people, they remain no more than a dream." Also reminds that the concept of "communications technology" encompasses more than computers and the internet.
Author asks whether new communications technologies can solve global development problems, or are they just a new way to make old mistakes? Examines the assumption that if you move data around instead of physical objects, then you can reduce pollution and energy use significantly. For example, analyses need to include environmental costs of the computers and networks themselves.

Notes:
192 pages., (p. 115) Argues that "subsistence" is misunderstood. Suggests that it specializes in low profit/low risk actions involving food production and local trade rather than high profit/high risk activity linked to urban merchants and long-distance trade routes.
(p. 116) "Academic and professional commentators on African agriculture have too often tended either to ignore female farming or to assume that it was undertaken for subsistence purposes."
