  • Abstract
    This paper forecasts a wide range of economic, social, political, legal, and institutional changes that will occur in the next several decades when interactive television is widely applied throughout society. A time-budget analysis is included which projects in quantitative terms how interactive television will alter the amounts of time that citizens devote to various work, home, and leisure activities.
