"Internet Governance" was one of the core issues of the 2005 World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) in Tunis. The compromise arrangement reached in Tunis basically confirms the role of the "Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers" (ICANN) and the specific responsibilities and controls exercised by the United States. However, the other side partnering in the compromise is not left empty handed: Individual countries will manage their own countrycode Top-Level Domains (ccTLD). |

This paper examines some of the implications associated with the growing complexity of the contemporary world, consequent upon the expanding economic and organizational involvement of ICT-based systems and artefacts. While possible to analyze in similar terms, current developments, as manifested in the diffusion of large-scale information systems and mostly the internet spin a web of technological relations that challenge the strategies of functional simplification and closure and the organizational practices that have traditionally accommodated them. |

The Impact of E-Commerce on Taxation |
|
Tuesday, July 18, 2006 by
Admin |
|
In 1994, e-commerce or literally accepting orders over a secure web site was considered a leading edge. Today, e-business is more pervasive and complex. The term e-business can be distinguished from e-commerce by the fact that e-business is broader and of a higher generation or rather a superset of e-commerce. In Tanzania there are no known studies made to establish the positive impact of e-commerce or e-business. In reality the positive impact of e-business outweigh the negative ones. However, there is a growing concern and fear by Revenue Administrators that companies using e-business could easily hide their earnings and thereby deny the Revenue Authority substantial revenue. |

Information Technology (IT) has become a potent force in transforming social, economic, and political life globally. Without its incorporation in this information age, there is little chance for countries to develop or be included in the global market. Getting reliable statistics on women’s Internet use in developing countries was difficult. Most women in these countries use IT at work, either as a tool of production or communication. Some use IT for networking to promote their business interests. |
