Abstract :
How electronic commerce (EC) develops into and through the first decade of the next millennium will dramatically affect economic, political and cultural life. The paper reports the results of a high level debate on the future of EC in Europe which was held in November 1996 in Windsor, England, and further discusses the implications of these possible alternative paths for the future on business organisations, governmental bodies and the overall society
