Based on the background of the development of information technology and value co-creation theory, this paper analyzes the relevance between information and communication technology and the sharing economy; studies the internal mechanism between consumer participation behaviors and consumer stickiness under different emotions; and expounds the impact of consumer participation behaviors on consumer perceived value. The structural equation model was used to analyze 902 questionnaires collected from TikTok consumers. The research results reveal that positive consumer participation behavior has a positive effect on consumer perceived value, negative consumer participation behavior harms consumer perceived value, and consumer perceived value has a positive impact on consumer happiness and stickiness. Consumer happiness plays an intermediary role between consumer perceived value and consumer stickiness.","PeriodicalId":51547,"journal":{"name":"Information Technology for Development","volume":"27 1","pages":"697 - 717"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/02681102.2021.1933882","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47996193","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The reality of the author’s lived experience, however, was that ICT4D practices in the African context imply cross-cultural working and worldview collisions. Simply adopting Western values and advice wholesale without adequate reflection, may lead to a design-reality gap, oppressive ICT transfer, and ultimately failure. Understanding cultural context and local development realities may present challenges, because it is interwoven with the assumptions and prejudices of those identifying and representing context from the outside. While there are attempts at addressing these issues, more nuanced examples adequately sensitized to ethical reasoning, insider knowledge, and power dynamics in cross-cultural working, are needed. This paper reflects on how a critical ethnography informed and transformed ICT4D project practices for the developmental realities of a traditional Zulu community in South Africa. Confessional narratives, representing both method and phenomena, are used as case analogies for outsider researchers and practitioners to draw on, firstly; to self-reflect on their own false consciousness and misguided assumptions, and secondly; to make sense of the typical abstractness of ICT4D project guidance and principles.","PeriodicalId":51547,"journal":{"name":"Information Technology for Development","volume":"28 1","pages":"137 - 164"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2021-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/02681102.2021.1928588","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43194313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite its medical and technological advances, much of the western world was unprepared for what its people faced. With a death toll and mortality rates unseen in modern times, the datafied world amidst some populist regimes witnessed additional pandemics within the pandemic of raging infections. In the changing world broadband internet access is becoming more essential to enabling people to lead their lives while locked-down and/or in quarantine. People become accustomed to accessing healthcare information, resources and providers through mobile and or other devices for their COVID 19 information, while tracking and tracing is being carried out using mobile applications. Those at the margins become vulnerable to digital biopolitics or efforts by governments and corporations to maximize knowledge and control of populations using digital means for political and economic power. In this the datafied society, increased data surveillance offered cause for activism and fight for human rights and freedoms. This also referred to as the datafied pandemic in which life revolves on the internet more than ever through access to tools, basic services, and social environments. Within these digital divides, the forces of globalization forge ahead with perils and promises. These issues are explored in this editorial and ways of tackling the pandemics offered in the light of papers in this issue. ICT4D research offers ways in which we may together create a better world for all.","PeriodicalId":51547,"journal":{"name":"Information Technology for Development","volume":"27 1","pages":"151 - 170"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/02681102.2021.1911020","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45696473","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Five distinctive clusters of technology adoption and use factors are identified, characterized, and geographically mapped. Disparities in adoption and utilization in ICTs in 36 LAC countries are examined Using a Spatially Aware Technology Utilization Model, fifteen socioeconomic, innovation, business efficiency, infrastructural, affordability, and societal openness indicators are posited to be associated with six ICT indicators. Human development, civil liberties, political rights, urban population, and electricity access are found to influence ICT adoption and use in LAC indicating socio-economic, urban, societal openness, and infrastructural dimensions of the digital divide in this world region. For a sub-sample of Latin American nations, regression findings point to human development and infrastructural factors. Spatial bias in confirmatory analysis is diagnosed, and policies are recommended.","PeriodicalId":51547,"journal":{"name":"Information Technology for Development","volume":"27 1","pages":"235 - 262"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2021-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/02681102.2020.1805398","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44270515","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
