“…In 1927, the Washington Conference promulgated the American system of apportioning spectrum by usage, rather than to individual nations as the Europeans had desired. 12 Spectrum seemed technical, but it enabled the United States to start asserting its vision of global communications.

In response to the perceived (by some) onset of an information society, historians have begun to study its roots and antecedents. The past is replete with the rise, fall, and transformation of systems of information , which are not to be confused with the narrower computer-mediated world of information systems . The history of systems of information—which for digestibility can be labeled information history —lacks neither scale nor scope. Systems of information have played a critical role in the transition to, and subsequent development of, capitalism; the growth of the state, especially the modern, nation-state; the rise of modernity, science, and the public sphere; imperialism; and geopolitics. In the context of these epochal shifts and episodes in human thinking and social organization, this essay presents a critical bibliographic survey of histories—outside the well-trodden paths of library and information-science history—that have foregrounded, or made reference to, a wide variety of systems of information.
