The principles of Internet governance play a central role in the specification of the standards relevant to Internet governance.<\/p>\n<p>Through the interlocking of <em>soft law <\/em>and binding law, national and international standards, technical principles and moral claims as well as their elaboration and application by states, civil society and the private sector, Internet governance has proven to be a laboratory for the legally relevant management of goods and resources (and claims) in the global public interest. The principles of Internet governance (and its regulatory objective) are essentially undisputed; however, their operationalization is not. The central regulatory objective of Internet governance remains to guarantee the stability and security of the Internet as a resource in the global public interest. In view of the importance of the Internet, this must be expressed more clearly in governance discourses.<\/p>\n<p>Kettemann, M.C. (2020): Internet Governance. In: D. Jahnel, P. Mader, E. Staudegger.
