将ICT工件整体置于能力方法中

Holistically Placing the ICT Artefact in Capability Approach

Mathew Masinde Egessa, Samuel Liyala

摘要:

本文提出了一个框架,全面地把信息和通信技术(ICT)的能力方法(CA)的人工制品。该框架协调了信通技术促发展中基于竞争和保护的框架内的不同技术概念,以解决不一致的问题。为了说明该框架,同时解决2015年后ICT 4D研究优先事项中最高的专题研究差距,该研究收集了居住在肯尼亚农村的现收现付(PAYGO)太阳能家庭系统用户的主要数据。使用的框架,研究表明,信息和通信技术的人工制品可以整体概念化的CA的三个概念:根据物质资源作为能力投入;作为一个新的类别的转换因素(技术转换因素);和作为一个组成部分的结构范围内。这项研究进一步表明,同样的信通技术人工制品如何在三种不同的概念中发挥作用,从而为个人带来不同的发展成果。研究报告最后提出了对政策和实践的影响。

英文摘要:

This paper proposes a framework that holistically places the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Artefact in Capability Approach (CA). The framework harmonises the different conceptualisations of technology within CA-based frameworks in ICT4D, in order to address the inconsistencies. To illustrate the framework, while simultaneously addressing the highest thematic research gap among post-2015 ICT4D research priorities, the study collected primary data from users of Pay-As-You-Go (PAYGO) Solar Home Systems who reside in rural Kenya. Using the framework, the study revealed that the ICT-artefact can holistically be conceptualised within three of CA's concepts: under material resources as a capability input; as a new category of conversion factors (technological conversion factors); and as a component within the structural context. The study further demonstrated how the same ICT artefact could play out in the three different conceptualisations, resulting in different development outcomes for individuals. The study finally presents the implications for policy and practice.
