    Bend, Not Break By Ping Fu Published by Penguin Group, 2012, 274 pages Reviewed by: Tamaria L. Williams ([email protected]), Coordinator of Academic Success, Divi- sion of Florida Colleges Bend, Not Break is a compelling autobiography by Chinese American entrepreneur, Ping Fu. The book details her ability to find the strength to survive and overcome during the tumultuous Chinese Cultural Revolution period. Fu details her forced deportation and role in the technological advances that led to the successful creation of her software company. The book chronicles how Fu’s once happy and safe childhood with her affluent and educated family in Shanghai turns into a world of uncertainty and poverty due to the Cultural Revolution. Under the leadership of pro-labor, anti-intellectual Chairman Mao, China experiences a Communist Party reform to eliminate capitalists and intellectual influencers. Mao’s regimen is enforced by an out-of-control army of young people called the Red Guards. At the age of eight, Red Guards storm Fu’s house and take her from her Shanghai family. The guards inform Fu that her Shanghai Mama and Papa are not her birth parents, and she is forced onto a train to her birth city, Nanjing, where she will raise her little sister, Hong. Fu struggled to comprehend the chaos that took place in her life and the oppression expe- rienced throughout the People’s Republic of China. She and hundreds of children from educated families were identified as “black elements” and were punished for the greed and corruption of their parents and ancestors.

    THE ROLE OF INSTITUTIONS IN THE DESIGN OF COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES Rajiv C. Shah* & Jay P. Kesan** 2001 Telecommunications Policy Research Conference October 27-29, 2001 Alexandria, Virginia Report #: TPRC-2001-086 ABSTRACT Communication technologies contain embedded values that affect our society's fundamental values, such as privacy, freedom of speech, and the protection of intellectual property. Researchers have shown the design of technologies is not autonomous but shaped by conflicting social groups. Consequently, communication technologies contain different values when designed by different social groups. Continuing in this vein, we argue that the institutions where communication technologies are designed and developed are an important source of the values of communication technologies. We use the term code to collectively refer to the hardware and software of communication technologies. Institutions differ in their motivations, structure, and susceptibility to external influences. First, we focus on the political, economic, social, and legal influences during the development of communication technologies. The institutional reactions to these influences are embodied in code. Second, we focus on the decision-making issues in the review process for code. This process determines the code’s content and affects the dissemination of code through the decision whether to publicly release the code. Our analysis focuses on four institutional environments: universities, firms, open source movement, and consortia, which have contributed to the development of the Internet. To study these institutions we chose four historical case studies. They are: NCSA Mosaic developed at the University of Illinois; cookies developed by Netscape; the Apache web server developed by the open source movement; and the Platform for Internet Content Selection (PICS) developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).
