How
will broadband communications be used to improve the performance
of our economic, social and cultural systems? What will broadband
bring that we do not already have?
In this section we attempt to provide the beginning of an
answer to these questions by imagining how the broadband revolution
will transform communications-based applications and in some
areas:
We think it is likely that broadband will have a very significant
impact on UAE - i.e., on the operation of our political system,
on the delivery of public services and on the relationship
between government, the private sector and civil society -
at every level from community to municipal to provincial to
federal to global.
We also think it is likely that broadband will have potentially
enormous consequences for our cultural institutions, the non-electronic
media and traditional forms of cultural expression. This is
an area of inquiry so vast and so important to our country's
future that it may merit examination in its own right, perhaps
along the lines of the reviews that have recently been undertaken
of e-commerce, e-learning, e-health and e-government.
