"This proposal for a Council decision is in line with the action intended to improve the networks of knowledge in Europe. The actions that have been planned are designed to address the clear advantage held by the United States in the “digital content” sector and in its distribution by various means linked to the Internet.
Europe is clearly in a position to respond to the challenge of the markets, due to its advantages in economic and employment terms, and, of course, due to its cultural wealth and linguistic diversity – which are shown clearly in the concept of linguistic minorities and regional languages – over the monolingualism that characterises much of the “Web”.
The variety of languages and cultures – particularly if we also take account of the potential offered by new Member States – also allows us, especially where the SMEs are concerned, to facilitate exchanges and to export Europe’s cultural values, and to do so in multilingual forms characterised by an increasing interaction with translation systems.
It must be emphasised that linguistic minorities, rather than being overwhelmed by the globalisation brought about by the Internet, have discovered that it opens up new cultural and economic horizons.
Lastly, our huge heritage of knowledge residing in public archives, which are today often inaccessible, must be put onto the web."@en1
