| Abstract (English): |
The incorporation of information and communication technologies (ICTs) is a heterogeneous social phenomenon. It works significant changes in access to knowledge, which have a repercussion on human activity. Lack of access to ICTs hampers equal opportunities and creates an important cultural, economic and social divide. This article reflects upon the contributions of ICTs and their repercussion on the social inclusion of disadvantaged collectives. The article looks at the lines of action promoted by international organisations as an instrument for eradicating inequalities and promoting social equity. Special attention is focussed on various scenarios using the dual perspective of possibilities and barriers provided by technological progress in connection with social integration. The article ends with the pertinent conclusions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Spanish): |
La incorporación de las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación (TIC) es un fenómeno social heterogéneo. Provoca cambios significativos en el acceso al conocimiento, lo que repercute en el quehacer humano. El hecho de no tener acceso a las mismas dificulta la igualdad de oportunidades y genera una importante brecha cultural, económica y social. En este artículo se reflexiona sobre las aportaciones de las TIC y su repercusión en la inclusión social de colectivos desfavorecidos. Para ello, se analizan las líneas de acción promovidas por los organismos internacionales, como instrumento para irradicar las desigualdades y promover la equidad social. Se presta especial atención a diversos escenarios bajo la doble perspectiva de posibilidades y barrearas que proporcionan los avances tecnológicos en relación a la inserción social. Finaliza con las pertinentes conclusiones. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
