[Chapter-delegates] VIDEO: The Geopolitics of Internet Governance

[Joly MacFie]

Another top quality discussion from ISOC-DC and crisp webcast from ISOC's
North America Bureau!  Internet Governance is a tricky topic to comprehend
- there are many aspects, not to mention myriads of acronyms. Those who
take the time to view this through (120 mins) should gain a much improved
degree of clarity on the ins and outs. Ambassador Verveer forcefully makes
the point that, for individual Governments to achieve integrity in Internet
policies, they need to improve their own inter-agency understandings in
this regard,

  On Thursday May 23 2013 the Internet Society's Greater Washington Chapter
(ISOC DC) along withe the Center for Strategic and International
Studies<http://csis.org/>presented The
Geopolitics of Internet

The international landscape calls for a more compelling narrative for
internet governance than the US–centric one inherited from the ‘90s. Will
it be possible to accommodate non-western state’s (this is much more than
China and Russia) desire for a larger role for governments without throwing
the multi-stakeholder model and (more importantly) human rights overboard?
A distinguished panel pondered this question and more. The event was
webcast live by the Internet Society's North America Bureau.
