[governance] Germany & Internet Governance

[michael gurstein]

Thanks Wolfgang but I would have thought that there would be some sort of
concise description/definition especially if as you say, they are looking at
this as some sort of alternative (?) to existing forms of "participation in
democracies".

 

Surely they aren't as wooly in their definition as the US seems to be in
what Roland pointed us to as coming from NTIA's Lawrence Strickling

 

The strength and power of the multistakeholder process arises from the
engagement of all interested parties including industry, civil society,
technical and academic experts, and governments.  By encouraging the
participation of all parties, multistakeholder processes encourage broader
and more creative problem solving.  This is essential when dealing with the
Internet, which thrives only through the cooperation of many different
parties.

Hi Michael,

you will find a lot of references in the Special Report on Internet
Governance. The model is even described as an innovative policy model which
can be useful also for other policy fields and enhance broader participation
in democracies. There is no single paragraph for MS, but if you use Google
Translate you will get the main messages from  this report. 

 

Best

Wolfgang,

 

Perhaps you could provide us with an English translation of the
"multistakeholder model" that the Commission is supporting.

 

Tks,

Hi,

 

for those of you who understand German: The German Bundestag discusses today
the final report of the Parliamentary Enquete Commission "Internet and the
Digital Society". The Commission was established three years ago and has
covered nearly all related issues - from Intellectual Property to Net
Neutrality, from Privacy to Security. The Final Report with eight Special
Reports is more than 1000 pages. The good news is that the Commission
supports 100 per cent the multistakeholder model for Internet Governance and
recommends that Germany should host (probably 2016 or 2017) the IGF. 

 

Here is the Final Report with Receommendations:
