Few people think of an Internet domain name like .us or .in as
anything other than an address-when, in fact, it often serves as a
roadmap to national identities and priorities. Addressing the World
looks behind eleven of the 240 global domain names, from the United
States and Australia to Moldova and East Timor, highlighting both
the technology and the larger social constructs that make each
distinct. Stories and first-person accounts by activists,
journalists, Internet administrators, lawyers, and academics
examine the sociological, historical, political, and technological
development of Internet country code top-level domains (ccTLDs).
Addressing the World reveals that technology is not just science
and domain names are not just practical-they are an entryway into
cultural education and understanding. Visit the author's website
for additional information, including chapter abstracts and
pictures and bios of all contributors.
