چکیده
A comparative case study is conducted on three digital city (public networks) projects of information infrastructure. The focus of the study is on the processes involved in the development of such networks and the consequences of such networks. This study looks at (1) two broadband network projects in Central New York, U.S. and (2) one Digital City project in Korea. For the U.S. cases, this study discusses problems in the development of public network projects in Central New York. The two broadband projects were funded under a state program to diffuse broadband technologies in economically depressed areas of the state. The Digital City project was sanctioned by the Seoul metropolitan government and is now being developed. This study investigates the initiation of such information infrastructure projects, their policy formulation processes, and the development of such projects. The new praxis of new information infrastructure is recommended.
