✦ Synopsis

The paper describes the issues in Information Society Technologies (IST) covered by the EU's research programme, in particular in the key action &&New Ways of Working and Electronic Commerce''. The programme of work addresses not only new technologies but also a wide range of socio-economic issues which are tightly connected to the human factors dimension. The way in which research policy has evolved, resulting in the current programme, is also outlined. The paper shows the close relation between IST developments and other European Union (EU) policy areas, and describes some of the recent planning exercises which are likely to in#uence the future direction of technology development and policies more towards social and organizational issues.
