In the early eighties optimism was high about the benefits of computerization in developing countries. Reality, however, would prove otherwise. While computers are a fact of life in most of the developed world, in developing countries they remain grossly under-utilized.
In Computerization in Developing Countries, Per Lind discusses the problems of applying Western computer programmes to Third World countries. He argues that these difficulties are not just technological but also cultural. Supported by numerous examples, the book illustrates that as computer programmes are a product of a developed culture they are not suitable for the specific problems of Third World reality. Likewise, there can be no one system to solve the problems of all developing countries.
