One of the many challenges facing the countries is preparing their societies and governments for globalization and the information and communication revolution. Policy- makers, business executives, NGO activists, academics, and ordinary citizens are increasingly concerned with the need to make their societies competitive in the emergent information economy. We share the belief that with enabling information and communication technologies (ICTs), countries can face the challenge of the information age. With ICTs they can leap forth to higher levels of social, economic and political development. We, hope that in making this leap, policy and decision- makers, planners, researchers, development practitioners, opinion- makers, and others will find these lecturers on the information economy society, and polity useful. \
