[Air-l] Internet Researchers in Japan

[Han Lee]

Dear Clift:

Hi, I know two professors in South Korea, who may be interested in your 
presentation. One is Prof. Shin Kyungwon from the Department of English and 
the other is Prof. Hyun Daiwon from the Department of Mass Communication. You 
can find their e-mail addresses from the following web websites:

>What is e-democracy?
>
>A simple definition of e-democracy is the use of the Internet in
>governance, politics, elections, media and community.  I have spoken
>on this topic hundreds of times across twenty countries.  I look
>forward to learning about e-democracy trends in Japan and comparing
>notes.

>In the days following the symposium I plan to meet people involved
>with e-democracy-related projects in media, politics, community and
>government.  Please e-mail suggested names and contact information to

>wireless political content on iMode, and citizens involved with very
>local uses of the Internet for local community involvement and

>In major cities around the world I have organized small informal
>public gatherings where people interested in e-democracy can meet one
>another.  We will meet online first and organize the details.  Join
