The global information society also has to confront the extreme disparities of access to information and knowledge between the industrialized countries and the developing countries, as well as within societies themselves. this inevitably induces the need for fundamental political choices and arbitrages on the goals socially desirable, and a definition of the `global common good'. - Reproduced.
