Preface by Koïchiro Matsuura, Director-General of UNESCO UNESCO Reference Works series 2005, 226 pp., figs, boxes, tables, references, notes, 28 × 21.5 cm ISBN 978-92-3-104000-9 € 25.00 UNESCO Publishing Towards Knowledge Societies clearly makes the distinction between knowledge societies and the information society. While the information society is based on technological breakthroughs, knowledge societies “encompass broader social, ethical and political dimensions.” The Report focuses in particular on the foundations on which knowledge societies that will optimize sustainable human development are constructed. The Report analyses the increasingly important role played by knowledge in economic growth and advances that it can serve as a new springboard for development in the countries of the South. It also presents a detailed analysis of the factors blocking the access of many countries to the opportunities offered by information and communication technologies, especially the growing digital divide and restrictions on freedom of expression. Finally, it makes a series of recommendations to improve the situation. Also published in French: Vers les sociétés du savoir, in Spanish: Hacia las sociedades del conocimiento, and in Chinese

Based on a selection of texts drawn from UNESCO’s rich archives and accompanied by brief explanations of the issues at stake, this thought-provoking book offers an authoritative understanding of the ongoing task of an Organization responsible for ‘constructing the defences of peace in the minds of men’. It also provides an opportunity to rediscover many outstanding personalities who took the floor at UNESCO: Albert Einstein, John Paul II, Sigmund Freud, Walt Disney, Duke Ellington, Charles de Gaulle, Nelson Mandela, Yehudi Menuhin, Pablo Neruda, Gabriel García Marquez, Jean-Paul Sartre, Jacques Derrida, Shimon Peres, Yasser Arafat to name just a few. As French philosopher Roger- Pol-Droit, who edited this book writes, ‘many more names could be added to the impressive and baroque list of heads of state, thinkers and artists who have participated in UNESCO’s work on a permanent or occasional basis’.
