Past work
The EMERGENCE project was funded by the European Commission’s IST Programme from January 2000 to the end of December 2003 to carry out innovative research on the new international division of labour in eServices.
This 450-page website stands as an archive of the work it achieved during this period
Ongoing work
EMERGENCE’s work did not stop in Europe, however. Between 2002 and 2004 the Asian EMERGENCE project carried out further research on the relocation of work both within Asia and to Asia from the rest of the world.
EMERGENCE Canada is funded to continue working in North America until 2006.
A report of EMERGENCE Australia’s work is also available.
Future work
A large global network has grown up around the EMERGENCE project and there is considerable interest in developing and extending its work through conferences, publications and further research. If you are interested in being kept informed about future developments, please contact Ursula Huws.
