Abstract

This paper focuses on the plans eEurope and i2010, considering them as governance actions of the European information society. Within this framework, the plans arisen from the Lisbon 2000 agenda -eEurope 2002 and eEurope 2005- are reviewed. It is presented the i2010 plan, which constitutes a major shift compared with the eEurope plans, and is intended to create a single European information space. A conceptual framework for depicting information society is also given.
