Gustavo S. Mesch

I hold a Ph.D. degree in Sociology from The Ohio State University and I am a Full Professor of Sociology at the University of Haifa (Israel). I investigate the social impacts of Information and Communication Technologies on Society.I was the Chair of the Communication and Information Technologies section of the American Sociological Association and the former Editor of the Sociological Focus, official journal of the North Central Sociological Association. I developed the Social Diversification Hypothesis that explains the use of I.C.T. by minority and disadvantaged groups in society.
