(r)Evolution of the iSociety (Word DOC)

In November 2012 the Dutch Ministry of the Interior & Kingdom Affairs published the working document called "The (r)evolution of the iSociety" online in Dutch. This exploratory document signals current and future developments in the Dutch information society, the iSociety. It was researched and written by Klaus van den Berg, an independent market researcher and strategist who works for the corporate sector, public authorities, NGOs and not-for-profits both in the Netherlands and abroad. This document contains the conclusion and recommendations in English.

In this trend report on social change Van den Berg identifies six fundamental megatrends in the Dutch iSociety:
1) The ageing population and social fragmentation
2) Blurring borders, both offline and online
3) Control over the tenability of the living environment
4) New online risks and security
5) The Network Society
6) The Intelligent Age
