The information society is a key issue in everyday life and a
phenomenon enc- passing social, cultural, economic, and legal
facettes. Currently, an information society's legal framework is
gradually crystallizing under the newly introduced term of
"Internet governance." During the last few years, intensive
discussions about the contents of Internet governance have
addressed manifold aspects of a possible regulatory regime. In
light of the general comprehension that an international treaty
structure is mi- ing and that self-regulation as a normative model
does not sufce in all respects, new architectural and
constitutional theories have been developed; furthermore, the
international body of the Internet Governance Forum (IGF) came to
life. N- withstanding the available literature on IGF, however, a
thorough and systematic study sheding light on the main topics of
Internet governance (such as legitimacy, transparency,
accountability, and participation) and on the key regulatory issues
(for example critical Internet resources, access, protection of
civil liberties/- man rights, realization of security, safety and
privacy standards, as well as the overcoming of the digital divide)
from a legal perspective is not yet at hand. The present
publication aims at discussing these legal challenges. This book
has benefted from many inputs and encouragements from colleagues
that I am deeply grateful for. In particular, I am indebted to the
very meaningful discussions and valuable support in the preparation
of the publication by my - search assistants lic. iur Mirin . a
Grosz and lic. iurR . omana Weber, to lic. iur.
