DI>Dear colleagues,
DI>
DI>We are pleased to inform you that THE FIRST INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON
DI>COMMUNICATION AND REALITIES: THE IMPACTS OF INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION
DI>TECHNOLOGIES ON SOCIAL REALITIES will be held in Barcelona (Spain) on 18, 1=
DI>9
DI>and  20 May 2000
DI>
DI>We are on the eve of a new millennium, marked by the massive introduction o=
DI>f
DI>information and communication technologies into all areas of social and
DI>private life. The magnitude of these changes is fostering the emergence of
DI>new realities which are adding to the individual's sense of uncertainty and
DI>are transforming societies in terms of deep structure as well as external
DI>forms of organisation.  The analysis of these changes involves serious
DI>problems due to the complexity of the process and due to its multifaceted,
DI>deeply interconnected nature.
DI>
DI>The First International Conference on Communication and Reality seeks to
DI>bring a multidisciplinary perspective to approach these questions raised by
DI>the above-mentioned technological change. The Conference will approach this
DI>question from four fundamental viewpoints:  the economic viewpoint (exchang=
DI>e
DI>of goods and services), the cultural viewpoint (exchange of symbols), the
DI>philosophical-anthropological viewpoint (exchange pf ideas) and the ethical
DI>viewpoint (exchange of values).  And all of those, influenced by the recent
DI>innovations in the field of communication, the evolution of which has
DI>surpassed its initial technical-scientific dimension and ended up provoking
DI>a profound cultural and social change of planetary proportions.
