Intergovernmental Organizations And Global Internet Governance Architecture
Résumé
Discussing results of our joint project that examines the complex
interactions among intergovernmental organizations and other
transnational institutions and nonstate actors in the global Internet
governance ecosystem, this study highlights themes related to the
changing architecture and roles of international organizations from WSIS
(World Summit on the Information Society) until NetMundial. Attention is
paid to old and new categories of organizations that emerged in this
context; and how they have been recognized as stakeholders in the
process. These organizations form a network, set in an environmental
context, thus constituting the interorganizational infrastructure for internet
governance today. Additionally, tracing knowledge flows and power
differentials over time among the different stakeholder organizations helps
to illustrate a major finding, the pro-active role of the international
organizations studied here in the messy, complex, and cross-national
internet governance ecosystem, shaped by and, at the same time, shaping
the technical infrastructure.
