resources and projects
This page is under construction.
It identifies major academic research projects and
resources regarding the governance of cyberspace.
governance projects
Two
useful starting points are the UCLA Online Institute for
Cyberspace Law & Policy (ICLP)
and the Cyberspace Law Institute (CLI),
both US-based. The ICLP
offers an online bibliography and analysis of events.
The Internet Law
& Policy Forum (IPF)
has a cross-border focus in exploring global regulation,
digital signatures, content blocking and other issues.
information society
At Harvard the Berkman Center for Internet & Society (BCIS)
and the Harvard Information
Infrastructure Project (HIIP)
are outstanding. The latter has produced an excellent
series of papers, noted throughout these guides, such as Coordinating the Internet (Cambridge,
MIT Press 97) and Borders In Cyberspace
(Cambridge,
MIT Press 97).
Yale has a competing Information Society Project (ISP).
On the west coast the Berkeley Center for Law &
Technology (BCLT)
complements the ICLP.
The Internet Policy Institute (IPI)
is a US industry-funded think tank, with a mission to
advise the President. It has produced a number of
valuable papers. The competing Global Information
Infrastructure Commission (GIIC)
is an offshoot of the US Center for Strategic &
International Studies.
criminology
The Australian Institute of Crminology (AIC)
is Australia's preeminent criminological research body,
with a growing interest in information law.
Communications Law
The Communications Law Centre (CLC)
is an independent research and analysis body hosted by the University of
NSW. We've highlighted its significance on other guides throughout
this site.
The Centre for International Research on
Communication and Information Technologies (CIRCIT)
is also of interest.
