The volume explores the consequences of recent events in global Internet policy and possible ways forward following the 2012 World Conference on International Telecommunications (WCIT-12). It offers expert views on transformations in governance, the future of multistakeholderism and the salience of cybersecurity. The book provides an interdisciplinary perspective drawing on international relations, international law and communication studies, which is further strengthened by the varied backgrounds of the contributors. It addresses not only researchers interested in the evolution of new forms of trans national networked governance, but also practitioners who wish to get a scholarly reflection on current regulatory developments. It notably provides firsthand accounts on the role of the WCIT-12 in the future of Internet governance.
