Resumen: Son innumerables las investigaciones que se han realizado en el mundo sobre los efectos y beneficios de las nuevas tecnologías versus población y la ciudad digital en sus análisis y conclusiones consideran que existe una nueva problemática en el mundo a la que se le denominó “brecha digital”. Sin embargo, no se han realizado investigaciones acerca del efecto que tienen las nuevas tecnologías de información y comunicación TICS sobre el tejido asociativo inmigrante de Argelia, Bulgaria, Colombia, Ecuador, Mali, Marruecos, Rumania y Senegal en España. El objetivo principal de esta investigación es determinar la incidencia de las nuevas tecnologías de la información y la comunicación en el tejido asociativo inmigrante en España, así como conocer el uso de éstas en el quehacer cotidiano de las asociaciones y sus implicaciones para las mismas, partiendo de una metodología no experimental, comparativa, descriptiva y de etnografía virtual. En sus conclusiones queda claro que la brecha digital afecta las asociaciones a partir de la diferenciación entre las que tienen acceso a internet, los conocimientos para el acceso y cuentan con contenidos de calidad, de las asociaciones que no.   Palabras clave: Tecnologías de la información, Redes Sociales, Migración.   Abstract: Countless researches have been done in the world on the effects and benefits of the new technologies of information and communication ICT versus population and the digital city in its analysis and conclusions consider that there is a new problematic in the world called "digital divide". However, there are not conducted researches about the effects that ICT has had on the immigrant associations network of Algeria, Bulgaria, Colombia, Ecuador, Mali, Morocco, Romania, and Senegal in Spain. The main objective of this article is to analyze the impact of new information and communication technologies on the immigrant network in Spain, as well as knowing the use of them in the daily work and their implications for them based, starting from a non-experimental, comparative, descriptive and virtual ethnography methodology. In its conclusions is clear that the digital divide affects these associations from the differentiation between those with internet access, the skills to access and the quality on the contents, from those without internet access   Key words: Information Technologies, Social Networks, Migration.

ABSTRACTThe new information and communication technologies (ICT),in particular Social Media like TripAdvisor, Face-book or Twitter are changing flows, processes and tools in Tourism Communication. Considering that traditional communi-cation tools and strategies are becoming less and less effective, ICT are encouraging new communication practices and influencing consumer behaviour. Several studies from the perspective of the reception have been published in recent years on the impact of Social Media in Tourism, therefore we thought to develop a study from the perspective of production. We approach the features and peculiarities of the impact of 2.0 platforms in Tourism Communication and we present as a case study the communication strategy of Long Beach Hotel, Sun Resorts in Mauritius Islands.RESUMENLas nuevas tecnologías de información y comunicación (TIC), en especial las redes sociales, como TripAdvisor, Facebook o Twitter están revolucionando los flujos, procesos, y herramientas de la comunicación turística. Las TIC influyen en los comportamientos del consumidor y obligan a nuevas prácticas en comunicación ya que las estrategias y herramientas tradicionales se tornan cada vez menos efectivas. Son varios los estudios que han sido publicados en los últimos años sobre el impacto de las redes sociales en el turismo desde la perspectiva de la recepción y por lo tanto, hemos querido aportar un estudio desde la perspectiva de la producción. Abordamos los rasgos y singularidades del impacto de las plataformas 2.0 en comunicación turística y presentamos como estudio de caso la estrategia de comunicación del Hotel Long Beach, Sun Resorts, en Islas Mauricius.

The present research is based on “Methodics for Preservation and Promotion of the Cultural Heritage with Artistic Interactions and Educational Impacts through Information and Communication Technologies (Nenov 2019), and the application of “the possibilities to promote cultural heritage with artistic interactions and educational impacts through the application of modern information and communication technologies (ICT), applying an interdisciplinary analysis of the scientific information for the cultural heritage sites” (Nenov 2019). Analysis of the activities for preservation and promotion of the cultural heritage has been made in the context of the concept, prepared by author team headed by architect Nenov – “Concept for activities for revitalization of the tourist attractions for promotion of intangible cultural heritage sites, under category “national” significance in the town of Bansko. (Nenov 2019a). The concept explores the impact of the environment in the “House of Arts Bansko” and the prerequisites for its reconstruction in “Cultural Heritage Promotion Center”. The applicability of notions, such as “cognition”, “cognitive architecture”, “interpretation of the cultural heritage”, “media façade”, educational “STEM” method and “authentic artistic interactions”, related to the research, is being analyzed as new approach for preservation and promotion of the cultural heritage. The significance of the interpretation of the cultural heritage in the context of ICT capabilities for the promotion of tangible and intangible cultural values is substantiated. Present examples for application of the Augmented reality (AR) are examined. The study presents the “possibilities for interpretation of the cultural heritage through visual research with information and communication technologies (ICT) in a real “in situ” and museum environment in the context of the cultural heritage sites and using the cited methodics, which was introduced in the dissertation “Conservation of the cultural heritage of Bulgaria in the context of the synthesis of architecture and fine arts “(Nenov 2016–2019). The possibilities for building cognitive environment are explored in the context of introduction of new technologies and good practices for popularization of the cultural heritage.

Future Potential

The “information revolution” has not only transformed the world as we know it, but also its future potential. Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), with their major technological advances, have affected the lives and lifestyles of people across the globe, as well as the way institutions and organizations do business. However, not all outcomes of the spread of information technologies have been positive. A majority of the world’s population, especially those who live in poverty, have been largely bypassed by this revolution. The gap between them and the rest of the world has expanded precisely as a result of the facilitation capacity of these technologies for those who have access to them (Figueres, 2003). The majority of these people are situated in the African continent and other developing countries.

Digital Gap

The Malaysian government, through many initiatives, has seriously looked into reducing and if possible eliminating, the digital divide that exists between the developed urban and the technologically impoverished rural communities. The e-Bario Project, a successful research showcase of Universiti Malaysia Sarawak, is one of the leading examples in Malaysia of such an attempt to bridge the digital gap and to achieve sustainable human development through the introduction of information and communication technologies (ICT). According to Harris, Bala, Songan, Khoo and Trang (2001), the World Bank had introduced a systematic approach to the application of ICT to meet the needs and bridge the digital divide of the rural community.

The Impact

Diffusion of information and communication technologies is a global phenomenon. In spite of rapid globalization there are considerable differences between nations in terms of the adoption and usage of new technologies. Several studies exploring causal factors including national cultures of information and communication technology adoption have been carried out. The focus of this chapter is slightly different from other studies in this area. Rather than concentrating on the individual information technology an overall e-Government readiness is the focus. This research conducted an analysis of the impact national culture has on e-Government readiness and its components for 62 countries. E-Government readiness assessment used in this study is based on the UN E-Government Survey 2008, while the national cultural dimensions were identified using Hofstede’s model of cultural differences. The research model and hypotheses were formed and tested using correlation and regression analysis. The findings indicate that worldwide e-Government readiness and its components are related to culture. The result has theoretical and practical implications.

Knowledge Society (KS) is influenced by Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), economic changes, political, cultural and social concepts allowing access to other levels of welfare and progress. However, the differences in terms of access and ICT skills between different groups in society have created a problem of digital divide. To overcome this problem, models and strategies are required to achieve a greater impact on the population and that population can develop skills that enhance inclusion in the society knowledge. This work proposes an Interactive Ecosystem of digital literacy that aims to set a new educational paradigm approach to encourage different learning communities to uses new technologies of information and communication that allows them to be more competitive in today's world and thus shorten the digital divide. Finally, a case study is shown as an implementation of the ecosystem throughout an architectural model in the state of Aguascalientes, México.
