Dr. Matthias C. Kettemann introduces the key questions of the handbook on Human Rights and Digital Technology and explores how digital technologies create new challenges for human rights, global governance, and legal regulation.
This Handbook offers new insights into well-established debates by framing them in terms of human rights. It examines the issues posed by the management of key Internet resources, the governance of its architecture, the role of different stakeholders, the legitimacy of rule making and rule-enforcement, and the exercise of international public authority over users. Highly interdisciplinary, its contributions draw on law, political science, international relations and even computer science and science and technology studies.
