We live in a transitional period between the domination of analog and digital culture. Digitalization creates potential opportunities of activeness for everyone but for long, or maybe even always, there will be a distinction between its active and passive consumers. According to prognoses, tree quarters of the discussed generation, which is of course in the countries saturated with computerization, will spend in the cyberspace 80% of free time. And where people want to be, an offer appears immediately. The question is, what is it going to be like? It seems to be forejudged, that the world will become not an Internet global village but a federation of villages on the globe. At present a similar process is undergoing in the Internet: it’s English language resources slowly, but systematically are shrinking in relation to other languages, although it will remain there the most important one. The internauts more often want to surf in their “own village” rather then in a global village. It will depend on the Europeans themselves, how much of the area they will stock, tame and mark with their own cultural code. It is now known for certain, that no one will remain solely analogue, everyone will to a larger or smaller extent become a member of the web-world. For... the generation born after 1985 Internet and mobile phones, are not just media, they have now become a social environment, in which one settles and lets out ones energy. It is a parallel world. How will one share life between these two worlds? The internet is not only sesame but also a rubbish heap of culture. It cannot be otherwise as it is as a flooding river, which can be deep only in its bed. This river-bed is and will remain to be the attainments of many generations of European culture. So much for reflections on the subject to which the 16th Circle’s Round Table is devoted. Surely the debates that will be undertaken will concern these issues and will bring at least partially the answers to the arisen questions. This year we have the privilege of co- organizing The Round Table with Culturelink. For years now it has been a favorable cooperation and so it pleases me that it is crowned with a conference of the round table – the leading activity of Circle. I thank for this Biserka and Sanjin. For the first time the Circle’s Round Table conference was not preceded with an international comparative research. It is a pity that due to a short period of time between the conference in Rome (November 2003) and Zagreb such research could not have been done, as that is what usually distinguishes the Circle’s conferences. I thank those who responded to the call for papers, as well as the organizing committee. I hope that as in the case of the extremely successful Rome Round Table conference on financing culture from state lottery funds, the gathered materials will allow to publish not only conference materials but a separate book publication. I wish all productive discussions in the beautiful Zagreb. Dorota Ilczuk President of CIRCLE iii  Dear participants, dear colleagues, It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to this international conference on eCulture: the European Perspective, a topic of great importance at the time of rapid change. The conference is being jointly organized and hosted by the world CULTURELINK Network and the European CIRCLE Network. The CULTURELINK Network was established in 1989 by UNESCO and the Council of Europe, which decreed that the new network should be headquartered in Zagreb, Croatia. During the past ten years or so, CULTURELINK and CIRCLE have enjoyed excellent co-operation in research projects on topics of vital importance for global cultural development, the creation of cultural policy databases, joint publication of books and periodicals, exchange of information and expertise on intercultural dialogue. Such co-operation is perhaps the best indicator of networks as dynamic systems of communication, exchange and partnership, characterized by openness and flexibility. Networks make possible the coexistence of messages coming from different cultures, tolerant relations among cultures, easier access to information and to different forms of cultural creation – all of this in the interest of democratization of communication. Modern societies are facing serious challenges and undergoing a real metamorphosis. The transformational changes at work today involve all aspects of our lives: the spread of knowledge, forms of social interaction, education, economic practices, culture and the media. Cultural diversity is one of the dominant themes in present day world communication. Therefore, the greatest value of networks is the possibility they offer for an interactive cultural dialogue, the ‘networking of cultures’, with each culture preserving and promoting its specific character, its identity, and having equal access to artistic and cultural expression. eCulture should be viewed in the light of cultural changes and new developments in information and communication technologies. In this light, eCulture appears as a multi-layered complex phenomenon which needs to be studied from a variety of aspects – cultural policy, new economy, existing on-line resources. I am sure that such topics will attract the attention of the participants, CIRCLE and CULTURELINK members, as well as others interested in the subject, and that they will give a new impetus to the ongoing debate on virtual reality and real cultural life, which will find its place in the World Summit on Information Society, to be held in Geneva in December this year. I wish the two networks, CIRCLE and CULTURELINK, much success in their future co- operation, and to the participants of this conference I wish a warm welcome, fruitful deliberations, and a pleasant stay in Zagreb, the seat of the CULTURELINK Network.
