Seminal research, such as Janet Abbate’s <i>Inventing the Internet</i> (1999) or Alexandre Serres’ <i>Aux sources d’Internet: l’émergence d’ARPANET</i> (2000) has extensively covered its history. However, the 50<sup>th</sup> anniversary of ARPANET provides an occasion to reflect on existing histories, to open the debate to new perspectives and approaches. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman'" lang="EN-GB">What have these pioneering researchers provided and what lessons have they taught us in terms of studying the history of computer networks? When considering ARPANET as a first step towards the Internet: how did this determine – and is still determining – our current understanding of the Internet and of the ARPANET? What other chronologies and territories involving the ARPANET can be advanced? What is left to explore and discover in the ARPANET’s history? If the ARPANET is dead today, are its heritage and spirit still alive and if so, how?</span></p><div><br></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-family:'Times New
