OverviewThis book provides an incisive analysis of the emergence and evolution of global Internet governance, revealing its mechanisms, key actors and dominant community practices. Based on extensive empirical analysis covering more than four decades, it presents the evolution of Internet regulation from the early days of networking to more recent debates on algorithms and artificial intelligence, putting into perspective its politically-mediated system of rules built on technical features and power differentials. For anyone interested in understanding contemporary global developments, this book is a primer on how norms of behaviour online and Internet regulation are renegotiated in numerous fora by a variety of actors -- including governments, businesses, international organisations, civil society, technical and academic experts -- and what that means for everyday users. This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International licence. It is offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations.

Table of ContentsReviewsRadu outlines the two main positions on internet governance that have emerged since the 1990s. There is on one hand a hesitancy to develop 'new' regulations for the internet at the 'expense' of old ones, and on the other a need to develop 'hard law' to govern it. Today, states must confront this tension. * Esther Naylor, Chatham House, UK, International Affairs * Author InformationDr Roxana Radu is a Research Associate at the Global Governance Centre, Graduate Institute in Geneva and a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Oxford's Programme in Comparative Media Law and Policy, working on Internet regulation, algorithms and knowledge production in the public sphere.
