Abstract

Pundits are forecasting the emergence of an ‘information’ society. The European Commission has stated that the ‘dawning of multi-media world (sound — text — image) represents a radical change comparable with first industrial revolution’ (EC White Paper: Growth, Competitiveness, Employment; 1994).
