Very interesting references! I am researchin the history of internet and
the Web BUT, when entering Latin America. If you know any documents about
that I will be more than thankful.

Regarding historiography, I like Briggs, A., & Burke, P. (2002). De
Gutemberg a Internet: una historia social de los medios de comunicación (M.
A. Galmarini, Trans.): Aguilar, Altea, Taurus, Alfaguara S.A. This is
originally in English but I have the Spanish vesion.

Also Breton, P. (1991). História da informática: São Paulo: Editora Unesp.I
have the portugese version but th original is in French and with no doubt
it migh be in English.

And Breton, P. (1992). L'utopie de la communication. Paris: La Dácouverte
essais. Same coment as above.

A chilean autor, talk about the feudal inheritage in Latin america and IT,
in a mixture that created three mythic scenarios for knowledge. That might
be of use: Duque, R. B. (2007). How the Internet is Shaping the Chilean
Scientific Community: Globalization and Dependency. Doctoral Dissertation,
Louisiana State University, Louisiana

Finally, there is a document that I found interesting about the effects of
IT in society: Agger, D. G., Armstrong, D. B., Boggs, J., Fein, L., Ferry,
W. H., Geismar, M., . . . Worthy, W. (1964). The Triple Revolution:
Cybernation - Weaponry - Human Rights. In T. A. H. C. o. t. T. Revolution
(Ed.), Mississipp Freedom School Curriculum:
http://educationanddemocracy.org/.

Hope this will be of use and please do no forguet, if you know any sources
about the Internet and Web entering Latin America I will be thankful.
