[ecrea] New Book: Network Neutrality and Digital Dialogic Communication

Book Announcement: Network Neutrality and Digital Dialogic Communication

New from Routledge, “Network Neutrality and Digital Dialogic 
Communication: How Public, Private and Government Forces Shape Internet 
Policy” explores how digital dialogic communication shapes and is shaped 
by network neutrality policies around the globe.

Available in print and e-reader on Amazon and through Routledge.

Book Description: In the months after the Federal Communications 
Commission’s (FCC) 2017 decision to repeal network neutrality as US 
policy, it is easy to forget the decades of public, organizational, 
media and governmental struggle to control digital policy and open 
access to the internet. Using dialogic communication tactics, the 
public, governmental actors and organizations impacted the ruling 
through YouTube comments, the FCC online system and social network 
communities. Network neutrality, which requires that all digital sites 
can be accessed with equal speed and ability, is an important example of 
how dialogic communication facilitates public engagement in policy 
debates. However, the practice and ability of the public, organizations 
and media to engage in dialogic communication are also greatly impacted 
by the FCC’s decision. This book reflects on decades of global 
engagement in the network neutrality debate and the evolution of 
dialogic communication techniques used to shape one of the most relevant 
and critical digital policies in history.
