<P class=MsoNormal><B><O:P></O:P><BR></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>
