High Tech And Free Trade In The 21st Century:
Freed from the artificial barriers of the Cold War and protectionist tariffs,
the world's economies are being stirred by access to new markets and exposure
to new competition. As the world's political leaders and financial institutions
seek to re-stabilize international commerce through regional trading blocs -
NAFTA, MERCOSUR, the EU, etc. - the World Wide Web is fostering the rapid
growth of new economic relationships; new flows of goods and services, new
commercial partnerships and mutual interests that will eventually become the
basis of the post-industrial global economy.
