    About this ebook

    The fourth publication in the GP-ORF series, the CyFy Journal Digital Debates 2015, features papers from practitioners of cyber security and internet governance across the world, who explore the implications of a changing digital arena.

    The internet is now old enough to be integrated deeply in global life. It is almost impossible to consider subjects as diverse as economics or national security without reserving a place for the internet’s role in nearly all global systems. Yet the internet remains young enough to have sharp contradictions and competing visions that our age must attempt to resolve. And it remains deeply local. In his inaugural address at CyFy 2014, India’s Minister for Communications and Information Technology Ravi Shankar Prasad said, “Global can never become meaningful unless it is linked to the local. That is how I see it. The internet may have been invented by a particular country, but is today the property of the world. It is the heritage of humanity powered by diverse innovations from every part of the world. All should be welcomed, all should be made a stakeholder. That is the approach of the Government of India as far as the issue of ecosystem is concerned.”

    What the minister alluded to is the inherent structural tension in the management of the internet today. By its very nature, the internet is a revisionist medium, allowing ideas and groups previously disempowered by distance (from each other or from centres of power) to achieve digital proximity and collective voice. Yet Michel Foucault’s concern that the narratives of the powerful can become true through their power remains alive in the internet age, as the digital arena remains inequitable and access begets voice. If the internet is democratic, it has a restrictive suffrage.

    Global Policy

    Global Policy is an innovative and interdisciplinary journal bringing together world class academics and leading practitioners to analyse both public and private solutions to global problems and issues. It focuses on understanding globally relevant risks and collective action problems; policy challenges that have global impact; and competing and converging discourses about global risks and policy responses. It also includes case studies of policy with clear lessons for other countries and regions; how policy responses, politics and institutions interrelate at the global level; and the conceptual, theoretical and methodological innovations needed to explain and develop policy in these areas.Global Policy will be invaluable to those working in economics, global politics, government, international law, international relations, international political economy, and many other disciplines that contribute to developing global policy. The journal is also designed to inform and engage senior policymakers, private and public corporations, non-governmental organisations, and international bodies. The overall objective is to stimulate deep policy learning, relevant for the academy and for governments and key non-governmental players.Global Policy's Editorial Board comprises a distinguished panel of academics who are supported by an International Advisory Board and a Practitioners' Advisory Board of experts from around the world to ensure the focus remains on pressing and relevant global issues. Global Policy is based at Durham University.
