Diplomacy refers to the professional activity or skills that are used to manage and strengthen the relations on international or global level. E-diplomacy can be termed as the new mode of conducting diplomacy acts with the help of internet and information and communication technologies (ICTs). In general, we often say that diplomacy is maintained of relations through communication. It is the art of conducting negotiations, forming alliances, discussing treaties, and reaching agreements. This can be done with proper communication which helps maintain a social image. Moreover, communication in diplomacy is that tactful move that ensures that the diplomat smoothly handles the relations with the other parties and makes them do what is needed without harming the interests and profits of either of two or more parties. This ensures peace and eliminates the feeling of ill-will. The chapter sheds light on the emergence of e-diplomacy in India, its advantages, use, and the future uses as well.

The One

During the last decades, the term postmodernity has been highly invoked, on the one hand, or ignored, on the other hand. It is a term that can be found in the writings of various philosophers and sociologists, and is almost ignored and less meaningful within the economic thinking.At first view and analysis, postmodernity is the successor of the modern age, modernity in other words. However, the concept has much deeper meanings; it regards the future, foreshadowing the new realities of today's world, which are very complex and dynamic, and come under endogenous and exogenous influences, activities and issues that are permanently under the influence of multiple and multidimensional challenges [7]. In fact, the period of globalization, of the new trends of the revolutionary ICT (Information and Communication Technologies), is believed to overlap the period of postmodernism.From the philosophical point of view, but also in consonance with the economic life and realities, the individuals and entities of any nature should be characterized by adaptability, the ability to respond promptly and appropriately to the impulses and reactions that affect that system.

The development of information technologies affects the process of professional training of specialists from different fields. During the last five years, scientists of Ukraine conducted a series of studies on the implementation of information and communication technologies (ICT) in professional training. The purpose of the study was to analyze the experience of applying information and communication technologies in the training of future economists, in particular, in higher education establishments (HEE) of І–ІІ levels of accreditation in Ukraine. In the course of the research, an analysis of the availability of scientific publications on the topic was carried out on the basis of the data taken from the web portal  of the V. I. Vernadskyi National Library of Ukraine and a free search engine with full texts of scientific publications at the Google Academy. As a result, 6457 relevant documents were found, which were filtered according to the following criteria: the relevance of the research topic, the implementation of the publication in the form of scientific research (article, abstract, dissertation), the publication date (from 2014 to 2019), the significance of research and significance of the results. On the basis of the publicationsʼ analysis, the following conclusions were made by the author: the relevance of understanding the results of the information and communication technologiesʼ implementation in professional training does not decrease the training of future economists; the greatest research is devoted to the analysis of experience and clarification of the information and communication technologiesʼ role in the future economistsʼ training in higher education establishments of the III–IV level of accreditation; the scientific works on the ICT implementation in the HEE of the I–II level of accreditation in professional training students of economic specialties cover some aspects of this problem (the future economistsʼ training for their professional activity through ICT; the ICT as a means of forming the future junior specialistsʼ professional skills in the economic field in the process of studying professional disciplines; the ICT in support of future specialistsʼ interactive training in economic specialties; the formation of key competencies of future accountants on registration of accounting data by means of the ICT).

The definition of the term "specialist competitiveness" is offered, the understanding of competitiveness in relation to the specialist in the field of IT is specified. The review of the most effective pedagogical methods aimed at increasing the competitiveness of IT specialists is carried out and the necessity of application in the educational process of information and communication technologies is substantiated. Attention is drawn to the fact that training of future IT specialists is impossible without the creation of specific pedagogical conditions that provide the process of forming the future competitiveness of the future specialist in the field of IT. Experienced through a competitive outcome that ensured competitiveness between participants in the process; to create vocational-motivational work to activate the process of professional activity of the future time; application of innovative pedagogical technologies in the process of teaching; the success of professionals and the competitiveness of training itself. First of all, it is about creating a competitive educational environment that will ensure the development of competitive activity between the participants of the educational process; creation of a professional-motivational environment for activating the process of professional growth of the future specialist; application of innovative pedagogical technologies in the process of teaching; raising the professional level of teachers and the competitiveness of the educational institution itself. Methods with the use of information and communication technologies are described in the work, aimed at the formation of professional competences, communicative abilities of a specialist, such as the ability to interact with the environment, work in a team, be accountable to the team, which is a necessary component of the competitiveness of a specialist in the field of IT.

ABSTRACTThe paper develops some of the conclusions, reached in Floridi (2007), concerning the future developments of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and their impact on our lives. The two main theses supported in that article were that, as the information society develops, the threshold between online and offline is becoming increasingly blurred, and that once there won't be any significant difference, we shall gradually re-conceptualise ourselves not as cyborgs but rather as inforgs, i.e. socially connected, informational organisms. In this paper, I look at the development of the so-called Semantic Web and Web 2.0 from this perspective and try to forecast their future. Regarding the Semantic Web, I argue that it is a clear and well-defined project, which, despite some authoritative views to the contrary, is not a promising reality and will probably fail in the same way AI has failed in the past. Regarding Web 2.0, I argue that, although it is a rather ill-defined project, which lacks a clear explanation of its nature and scope, it does have the potentiality of becoming a success (and indeed it is already, as part of the new phenomenon of Cloud Computing) because it leverages the only semantic engines available so far in nature, us. I conclude by suggesting what other changes might be expected in the future of our digital environment.

Insight Into

This paper is based on reflections after an emotional discussion on the word and term medijs(i) (‘medium’) in Latvian that broke out during the yearly conference The Word: Aspects of Research at Liepāja University, in November 2019. The aim of this paper is not to blame or replace the broadly spread two-word term plašsaziņas līdzekļi with an anglicism mediji. In Latvia, there are many titles and documents where this term has a permanent and stable place. Such as, for example, The National Electronic Mass Media Council. At the same time, it is time to recognise the use of the word medijs(i) as an entirely accepted synonym of plašsaziņas līdzeklis(ļi) and even as a semantically more broadly usable term in the context of developing information and communication technologies. As this short insight into the research of the word shows, the term is already currently used not only among professionals but also on the level of state institutions, public and private organisations, and companies. On the other hand, especially in the contexts of communication science, arts, and philosophy, the spectrum of meanings of the word medijs(i) in the vocabulary of modern Latvian must be broadened.

Current Scenario

Cloud based mobile learning (m-learning) is emerging as one of the most important branches of cloud computing, and is still in its infancy. These days, there are two emerging archetypes in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for learning. The first one is the anytime, anywhere, on-the-move, to be called the mobility archetype, and the second one is the cloud computing. Both archetypes are radically transforming the way we learn, communicate, access, and utilize information resources, and connect with peers and colleagues, thus affecting all aspects of education. This chapter delivers an introduction of the evolution of cloud based m-learning, benefits and characteristics of cloud based m-learning. It also canvasses the current scenario of m-learning utilizing the cloud, various challenges for implementing the m-learning system on the cloud. It further confers technologies used for cloud based m-learning. It also considers a brief look at methods for creating m-learning content and experiences, suggested by various researchers and concluded with the future aspects of the cloud based m-learning.

Providing affordable and quality healthcare is the most burning demand for humanity. It is a fact that more or less half of the world's population resides in rural areas, and a majority of these people are left without the most basic amenities, such as healthcare and education. It is considered difficult to open and manage healthcare facilities in any community using traditional healthcare models for the states with limited resources particularly for developing countries. One of the most popular substitute tools is telemedicine to improve healthcare for underprivileged groups. In telemedicine, information and communication technologies (ICTs) are employed to ensure healthcare at a distance. On the other hand, one of the main problems in developing countries is the quality and cost of healthcare. In health research, telemedicine has become a new hope for eliminating bottlenecks. In this study, the authors have examined what challenges and issues developing countries are facing in implementation of telemedicine; particularly, they examine Pakistan as a case.
