This is a broad international comparative studies on the process of informationalization of the United States, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, European Continent, Latin America and African Continent. The following are basic findings of our research.The first of all, new information technology revolution is above anything else cultural creation. Therefore, culture of information technology is indispensable for making information society.Secondly, culture of information technology consists of meritocratic culture of techno-elites, hacker culture, culture of virtual community, culture of entrepreneur and communication culture. Informationalization is made possible only when these cultures are articulated carefully.Thirdly, the characteristics of the process of informationalization in each countries are outcome of unique combination of each component of culture of information technology. We have varieties of information society. The prototype of information society (Silicon Valley) has been articulated each component of information technology in equal weight. But information societies in east Asia are characterized by relative weakness of science and libertarian ideology. European model of information society has human resource development strategy top on the articulation of each component of culture of information technology. Latin America and African continent are looking for strategy to solve severe digital divide in vein.Fourthly, informationalization in Japan is facing to the fundamental problem. That is the contradiction between culture of information technology and Japanese culture. Japanese culture is characterized by sense of Japanese cultural, racial distinctness and corporatism among exclusive members.

这是对美国、日本、新加坡、马来西亚、欧洲大陆、拉丁美洲和非洲大陆信息化进程的广泛的国际比较研究。以下是我们研究的基本发现。 首先，新信息技术革命高于文化创造。因此，信息技术文化对于信息社会的建设是不可或缺的。其次，信息技术文化包括技术精英精英文化、黑客文化、虚拟社区文化、企业家文化和传播文化。只有当这些文化被仔细地表达出来时，信息化才有可能实现。第三，各国信息化进程的特点是信息技术文化各组成部分独特结合的结果。我们有各种各样的信息社会。信息社会的原型（硅谷）已经同等程度地阐明了信息技术的各个组成部分。但东亚信息社会的特点是科学和自由主义意识形态相对薄弱。信息社会的欧洲模式将人力资源开发战略置于信息技术文化各个组成部分的阐述之上。拉丁美洲和非洲大陆正在寻找解决严重数字鸿沟的战略。第四，日本信息化面临根本性问题。这就是信息技术文化与日本文化之间的矛盾。日本文化的特点是日本文化意识、种族独特性和排他性成员的社团主义。
