>Dear Colleagues:
>
>The transnational digital linkages among civil society organizations have
>produced an entirely new realm of politics beyond the state. However,
>there are significant constraints on the further development of civil
>society networking.
>In order to provide the knowledge necessary to move forward to overcome
>those constraints and expand the global networking of civil society, the
>Social Science Research Council has produced two reports on information
>technology and civil society that we think might interest you and are now
>available. They are:
>- "Appropriating the Internet for Social Change: Strategic Uses of
>Networked Technologies by Transnational Civil Society Organizations "
>- "Global Governance of Information Communication Technology: Implications
>for Transnational Civil Society Networking."
>
>The reports can be read on or downloaded from our Web site at
>www.ssrc.org/programs/itic If you would prefer to receive a hard copy
>please send a request to Ms. Marcela Sabino at [email protected].
>
>In addition, we have recently published Bombs and Bandwidth which examines
>the use of ICT by governments, businesses, terrorist and criminal
>organizations, and social movements. The book has been featured in an
>article on MSNBC Newsweek: http://www.msnbc.com/news/986097.asp?0cv=KB20
>Background on the book is available on our web site
><www.ssrc.org/programs/itic> .

>**Note: This is an announcement by the Information Technology and
>International Cooperation program at SSRC. You are not subscribed to a
>mailing list. If you prefer not to receive announcements from us in the
>future, please let us know. We hope that you will be interested and
