Abstract

This text is one of the last contributions of pioneer of Political Economy of Communication Herbert I. Schiller. The author keeps up with one of his fundamental thesis, that is, the extension of the free flow of information doctrine as part of the US foreign policy. In this case it is applied to electronic commerce and the digital era. In this sense one of the documents analysed in depth by the author, The Framework for Electronic Commerce, represents the actualization of this doctrine. Thus the preservation of US hegemony and its global electronic mastery will be a fact along the 21st century.
