- The growth of the Internet and its embeddedness in so many facets of modern life – citizenship as full participation in society. Elsewhere referred to as “social inclusion.” T.H. Marshall – a British sociologist who wrote on the meaning of citizenship in the modern welfare state – argued that citizenship endowed all members of a community with certain civil, political and social rights – including the right to live according to the prevailing standards of a society – this is the idea of having a social safety net. In a sense, the Internet has become a part of the prevailing standards of society in the information age. In the earlier book, VI, we argued that public policy addressing information technology use was justified because of the spillover benefits that technology use has for society, beyond the benefits that it confers on individual users. Economists call these positive externalities – positive benefits that spillover to others in society. These kinds of broad spillovers or externalities are clearest in the case of the economy and politics. Technology use increases the productivity and the competitiveness of the US workforce. To the extent that Internet use opens up new venues and new forms of political participation, it has the capacity to enhance democracy in terms of transparency (on government websites, for example), information, deliberation, and participation. The current election demonstrates the power of the Internet to a greater extent than previous elections – although, as you will see, there was clearer an impact earlier in this decade as well. The positive externalities are clear, but we argue in this book that technology represents more than that. Yes, increasing the number of Internet users produces greater aggregate social benefit. But, more than that, it has become essential for full participation in society – especially for economic opportunity and political participation. The policy justification is not just the greater social good, but equality of opportunity – the right to participate fully in society.
- Operationalizing a concept – how to measure with existing data? How to capture more than use anywhere or even home access (although that is important for frequent use and skill development)
- FREQUENCY MATTERS – 2002 AND 2005 PEW (no controls for occupation, smaller sample, household income rather than wages)
- Liberalism – social justice requires equal chances – education and training as redistribution
