[1] Maintain and “condition” the exchanges among nations, including information and communication, trade and investment, and immigration [2] States may discourage interchange with the outside world based on a variety of policy objectives. Closed, authoritarian societies attempt to restrict communication. Many societies restrict trade and investment, based on various theories of economic development, as well as on the realpolitik of protecting powerful private interests. Finally, immigration restrictions can be used to protect local workers and also to retain local workers and prevent “brain drain”—on the other hand, such restrictions limit the exchange of ideas, and may be detrimental to the development of the digital business ecosystem. [3] By its nature, international law is strongly dictated by the foreign policy and globalization theories of the nation. As such, to have an impact, a lawyer or a group of entrepreneurs must find a way to have a voice in the policy process. In recent years there have been many “ICT policy” projects in developing nations, aimed at bringing together business, government and civil society. In a few cases, such as Senegal where tariffs on telecommunications equipment were reduced, such projects have led to important policy shifts. More promising, as ICT is seen as an important contributor to trade and economic development, government leaders are becoming more informed about how to promote it, and more receptive to the involvement of entrepreneurs. Often the most receptive government officials then become those concerned with trade and development—rather than those concerned with ICT per se, such as the departments of communications. Entrepreneurs and lawyers can seek to make common purpose with those with the most progressive agendas. [0]
