Information and Communication Technology is now widely accepted by developing countries as a development tool in their efforts to alleviate poverty, enhance human development, and achieve Millennium Development Goals. Recognizing this untapped potential and development strategies incorporating ICT are being increasingly promoted and launched across the developing countries requiring a comprehensive ICT policy that plays a crucial rule, in particular, in the area of agriculture and rural development. While the potential advantages of ICT for development are enormous in developed countries, national policies of developing countries are yet to adequately reflect truly comprehensive and integrated strategies for harnessing and exploiting this potential. This paper tries to provide implication of ICT policy to the agriculture and rural development in developing countries, in particular through lessons learned from European Union (EU) IT policy. Through the examination of vital projects in the agriculture and rural development sectors and case study analysis of applied policies and strategies implemented in the European Union, this paper provides tangible examples and lessons for policy-makers and practitioners involved in the field. Hence, this study provides policy-makers the necessary tools, information and knowledge to facilitate the formulation and adoption of ICT policies and strategies in the agriculture and rural development sector.

The government has made a great effort for the development of rural area. The aim of this study is to analyze the change process and characteristics of the government's rural area development policies implemented so far and present an aid as adequate material to the direction of development policy for rural areas. The rural area development policy had been focused on maintenance of physical infrastructure facilities in the rural areas, pursuing urban convenience led by the government from the 1950s to 1990s. The policy has changed to local residents-led rural area development from the late 1990s to present time. The basic direction of the policy turned into making much of environment-friendliness and promotion of regional activation. The policy was transformed to recognize our rural area and also perceive it pastoral and resting space. In addition, green tourism has emerged as an important theme since 2000. In the rural area development policy, it is the most important to connect it with various development projects, select target areas from the long-term perspective and pursue efficiency through intensified investment of financial resources.

In this knowledge based society, the debate on ICT has permanently shifted from 'why' ICT for development, to 'how' comprehensive and holistic ICT policies can unleash human potential and enhance people's capabilities to improve their lives. Recognizing this untapped potential and development strategies incorporating ICT are being increasingly promoted and launched across the developing countries. While the potential advantages of ICT for development are enormous in developed countries, national policies of developing countries are yet to adequately reflect truly comprehensive and integrated strategies for harnessing and exploiting this potential. This paper presents an analysis of National ICT policy of Bangladesh. Through the examination of ICT policy, in particular in the field of agriculture and rural development and analysis of applied policies and strategies implemented in these area, this paper identifies challenges and opportunities which provides lessons for policy-makers and practitioners involved in the field. This analysis reveals that the policy is inadequate to impact positively on the agriculture and rural development of Bangladesh. The policy places little emphasis on the integration and infusion of ICT in the country's agriculture and rural development. Policy implications and suggestions are offered to ensure maximum use of ICT potentials in the country's agriculture and rural development.

The purpose of the study is to investigate the development of institutional repositories in university libraries in Nigeria. The study adopted a survey research design. Online questionnaire, IRs investigation, and interview methods were used to collect data from the 21 university libraries that have developed IRs in Nigeria. The study revealed that only few universities have successfully developed open access IRs to preserve and manage their intellectual outputs emanating from their universities. Contents such as journal articles, theses/dissertations, and conference / workshop papers were found to be the most popular contents that are hosted in the IRs. The interview revealed that although few respondents mentioned having IR policy statements in areas such as access policy, submission policy, preservation policy, content policy and copyright policy, the majority mentioned not having any defined policy in their IR. Also in the interview, inadequate fund, challenge of collecting contents for the IR, shortage of skilled ICT personnel, and inadequate facilities were the most mentioned challenges encountered in the development of IRs in Nigeria. Findings from this study will inform University Librarians, university management and policy makers on the need to provide the necessary infrastructure and formulate policies for smooth development of institutional repositories to make research visible globally. The results will therefore provide important data and insight into the development of institutional repositories in university libraries in the context of developing countries.

Advances in Information Communication Technologies (ICT) have demonstrated tremendous potential for solving development challenges and improving development processes, culminating in the new Development 2.0. Many development practitioners have embraced ICT (particularly on Web 2.0 and mobile phone technologies and applications), which have become hot topics in both the development community and the policy community as they engage in development practice and dialogue. Despite this excitement, there lacks among the policy community a robust understanding of the powers and pitfalls of ICT in development, executed actions to back the excited chatter, and dissemination of this understanding to practitioners and policymakers alike. We conducted a literature review, interviewed experts, and engaged in discussion with leaders in international development and science and technology policy to provide an operational framework base in which to view ICT in development. This framework regards ICT as tools that support more effective and efficient community development actions and appropriate consideration of general guidelines, which enable better engagement across and within sectors and individuals. Flexibility and accountability are critical requirements pervading throughout the various actions and guidelines, which promote transparent, partnership-based, and sustainable development. We highlight the strengths and weaknesses of ICT to focus on the cautions to keep ICT access and distribution in context, understand the various levels of technologies and services, and dig below the surface as excitement about ICT increases and threatens to become a short-term solution. We offer ideas for specific programs that policymakers can implement to contribute to a more efficient and effective development process to ultimately support global human development, but stress the endless possibilities that can be explored with creativity and flexibility beyond what is proposed here.

1970년대 유통근대화정책에서 비롯되어 1990년대 서비스무역시대의 시작에 따른 경쟁력강화정책, 외환위기 당시의 구조조정정책, 21세기 이후의 서비스전문인력 양성과 서비스 R&D, 정책의 부침에서 최근 박근혜정부의 서비스발전정책에 이르기까지의 정책발전을 정책변동 이론의 주요 모델인 정책흐름모형과 정책내러티브의 틀 속에서 바라보았다. 지식기반의 확충에 따라 차원에서 서비스정책내러티브는 발전하여 왔으나 이명박 정부 이후 정책창의 닫힘이라는 현상이 서비스정책의 후퇴와 실패를 가져왔다고 진단한다. 정책창이 닫히는 주된 원인은 보수정당의 집권에 따라 산업화 시대의 자본-노동의 대립이라는 낡은 정책갈등이 격화되었기 때문에 탈산업화 담론인 서비스정책내러티브가 채택되기 어려워지기 때문으로 보인다. 성공적 서비스 발전 정책을 위한 정책창을 열기 위해서는 단순한 서비스내러티브의 추구를 넘어서 서비스패러다임으로의 전환을 도모해야 한다.
