Policing The Internet
Who Controls The Internet? : Illusions Of A Borderless World

Attribution
Jack Goldsmith and Tim WuPublication Details
BookOxford University Press2006Links
Description
Is the Internet erasing national borders? In this provocative new book, Jack Goldsmith and Tim Wu tell the fascinating story of the Internet’s challenge to governmental rule in the 1990s, and the ensuing battles with governments around the world. In a decade of events the original vision is uprooted, as governments time and time again assert their power to direct the future of the Internet. Far from destroying the Internet, the experience of the last decade has lead to a quiet rediscovery of some of the oldest functions and justifications for territorial government.

Net Loss : Internet Prophets, Private Profits, And The Costs To Community

Attribution
Nathan NewmanPublication Details
BookPennsylvania State University Press2002Description
“Nathan Newman has written a fascinating history of the Silicon Valley that chronicles the federal government?s leading role in creating, and then privatizing, the Internet. Net Loss not only dispels the myth that the Internet emerged full-blown as a result of entrepreneurial risk in a competitive marketplace, but also explains in depth how forces of globalization have undermined regional economies in California while reshaping social and political life in local communities. He then examines the complex dynamic of the process whereby regional economies have been changing as business alliances built around industries like the Internet replace the broader public investments that fueled regional growth in the past.
