[Matthias C. Kettemann]

Dear friends,

we would hereby like to announce the publication of a new book on 
Internet Governance and the Information Society:

Wolfgang Benedek, Veronika Bauer, Matthias C. Kettemann (eds.):
Internet Governance and the Information Society: Global Perspectives and 
European Dimensions (Utrecht: Eleven Int'l Publishing, 2008)
ISBN: 978-90-77596-56-2, Hardbound, xiv + 176 pages, Publication date: 
April 2008, Price: EUR 45 / US$ 68.

Abstract:
The legal, social and economic implications of the information society 
permeate every fiber of public life in the real world, influence 
politics and policies and test the limits of traditional notions of law, 
concepts of regulations and systems of governance.
 
Uniting an impressive array of authors this book broaches the challenges 
of internet governance in the information society. Renowned scholars and 
practitioners from, among others, the Council of Europe, the OSCE, the 
United Nations Internet Governance Forum, academia and business shed 
lights on both, the global perspectives and the European dimensions of 
internet governance. Among the authors are regular contributors to this 
list such as Meryem Marzouki  and Wolfgang Kleinwaechter.

The book identifies 2010 as the year where fundamental decisions on the 
future of the internet as we know it will be reached. Aimed at students, 
teachers and practitioners of law, sociology, international relations 
and technology, the contributions describe the challenges ahead and the 
road to travel by and is essential reading for anyone interested in the 
future of internet governance.
