The Routledge Companion to Global Internet Histories brings
together research on the diverse Internet histories that have
evolved in different regions, language cultures and social contexts
across the globe. While the Internet is now in its fifth decade,
the understanding and formulation of its histories outside of an
anglophone framework is still very much in its infancy. From
Tunisia to Taiwan, this volume emphasizes the importance of
understanding and formulating Internet histories outside of the
anglophone case studies and theoretical paradigms that have thus
far dominated academic scholarship on Internet history.
Interdisciplinary in scope, the collection offers a variety of
historical lenses on the development of the Internet: as a new
communication technology seen in the context of older technologies;
as a new form of sociality read alongside previous technologically
mediated means of relating; and as a new media "vehicle" for the
communication of content.
