This books systematically assesses the role of government in the computerization of U.S. and world society. Part One traces the evolution of postwar policy for domestic telematics--in parallel with growing corporate demand for merged computer-communication services under private mastery. Part Two extends the arguments to the international sphere, as the structure of corporate enterprise is now essentially transnational. Part Three returns to Government's other critical role in the computerization process, as a market for advanced telematics equipment and services.
