</b>As the Internet becomes a key factor of reorganizing our social
structures, and doing so at a global level as never before, democratic
global governance of the Internet is a pressing imperative. Its present
governance structures grew out of certain historical contexts, as well
as of some new socio-political realities around the Internet. In the
context of rapid changes that the Internet has wrought, the key and
emerging issues related to its governance, and the correspondingly
legitimate governance arrangements, could not have been anticipated by
anyone. One thing however is clear by now; the Internet is not just a
technical artifact, requiring technical governance with regard to
keeping it running smoothly, but a key socio-political phenomenon
requiring participative political governance by all people of the
world, who are all implicated.<span> </span>However, the direction we
move in from here depends on where we stand. It is important to analyze
the needs of evolution and internationalization of IG from these dual
standpoints. <O:P></O:P></p>

The workshop will seek to discuss some real institutional possibilities
