Government networks are fast, flexible, cheap, and effective. They are also decentralized, thus avoiding the creation of more bureaucracy on top of already bloated national structures.</p> <p>Access and control over information has become a crucial component of government power. They wield more power than domestic agencies because they can develop rules on a global scale.</p> <p>Web site serves as a clearinghouse for the dissemination for information and the coordination of activities; for those outside the network, the web site creates a public face. Transparency requirements will be foremost on the agenda: sites may eventually include records of meetings held an issues discussed and decided, as well as calendars of upcoming projects.</p>  <h4>Conceptual references to transnational – transnationalism</h4> <h4>Conclusions or Final Remarks</h4><p>The web sites of government networks allow those who would be in charge –voters, legislatures, regulated entities- to begin asserting control.
