.****rmation and.***munication Technologies (ICTs) can improve productivity, help create internationally.***petitive businesses and represent a key to social and.***anizational reforms. President Obama used ICTs effectively during his presidential campaign. Now in power, his administration makes aggressive use of the social.***working tools (blogs, Facebook, Myspace, Twitter etc.) to develop stimulus policies and other governmental operations. Here, ICTs are not just tools for election campaigns, but for realizing civic participation and transparent policy-making. Also important is the vibrant blogosphere where discussions about the future of media industries and Inte.*** firm business models are influencing corporate strategies. A pattern is emerging where corporate and policy decision-making is shaped by open Inte.***-based discussions. Japan has advanced broadband infrastructure and excellent entertainment services.

Our experts explore the evolving role of ICTs in reforming politics, business and society in U.S. and Japan.
