The Digital Revolution in Developing Countries: Brief Analysis of the Dominican Republic
Juan Cayón Peña and Luis A. García-Segura
2017Information and Communications Technologies for Development (ICT4D) can help people in developing countries pursue a wider variety of eco nomic and social activities, which in the majority of the cases can reduce overall poverty significantly. As of this moment, there is an important “Digital divide” regarding broadband internet access between Developed and Developing countries, calling for immediate action plans around the world to build the digital infras tructure that can foster digital economies and thus the digital revolution. Applied to sustainable development, the data revolution calls for the integration of this new data with traditional data to produce high-quality information that is more detailed, timely and relevant for many purposes and users, especially to foster and monitor sustainable development. On the infrastructure side, broadband access must con tinue to be a priority in every digital revolution strategy, given the new Digital divide gaps that have emerged in the past ten years. On the social side, Big data for development can be one of the premier mechanisms that drives the data revolution within the bigger digital revolution picture.

2016Desde los primeros años del Siglo XXI se ha modificado notablemente el panorama estratégico de la defensa occidental, debiendo hacer frente a nuevos retos y amenazas hasta entonces desconocidos o en el mejor de los casos, infravalorados. En dicho concepto se hace imprescindible la adopción de medidas preventivas para garantizar la seguridad sobre el territorio e intereses propios, entre las que destaca la conceptualización de la frontera avanzada entendida como área geográfica sobre la que pueden desplegarse operaciones tal y como es el caso del Norte de áfrica respecto de la geoestratégica de España y la Unión Europea. A La posible traslación de dicho concepto al ámbito de la ciberdefensa en la protección de infraestructuras críticas y la reflexión crítica sobre el Ius ad bellum en la modernidad y postmodernidad son abordadas en esta contribución
