*/Call for Abstracts - Deadline: 9 November 2018/*
Although to varying degrees of autonomy, awareness, and effectiveness
over time and issues, European institutions have been engaged in
internet governance and policy-making since at least two decades. Both
the European Union and Europe as a region have generally played a
crucial role in shaping the governance of the internet, at the global,
regional and national levels.
From a geopolitical perspective, the EU has been one of the early actors
advocating for the internationalisation of the DNS system and, more
generally, for the enhancement of the multi-stakeholder governance
model. From a normative point of view, EU institutions as well as Member
States have deeply affected highly sensitive internet-related issues,
such as privacy and data protection, digital market competition,
consumers' rights, copyright, e-commerce, content regulation, the right
to be forgotten, etc. On the institutional level, some of the most
interesting cases of recent constituent policies have emerged from
the European Union, leading to the establishment of new agencies such as
the European Network and Information Security Agency (ENISA) and the
European Data Protection Board (EDPB). Beyond the EU, some European
intergovernmental organisations, such as the Council of Europe (CoE),
have developed structured initiatives to uphold human rights, democracy
and the rule of law on internet governance issues. Further, a number of
European initiatives, such as the European Dialogue on
internet Governance (EuroDIG) and the Global internet Policy Observatory
(GIPO), have facilitated the transfer of ideas, knowledge, policies and
institutional arrangements towards other countries and geographic areas.
Finally, European NGOs as well as some European internet companies
are currently advancing alternative visions and values about the
internet and its governance, enriching the set of internet governance
approaches as well as available design options.
The third edition of the European Multidisciplinary Conference on Global
Internet Governance Actors, Regulations, Transactions and Strategies
(GIG-ARTS 2019), will be held exactly twenty years after the entry
into force of the Amsterdam Treaty and ten years after the Lisbon
Treaty, which are milestones in the history of the European integration
process, preparing the EU for enlargement and further deepening of
competences, and reinforcing the centrality of democratic principles and
the protection of fundamental rights as the Union's foundation.
After having addressed “Global Internet Governance as a Diplomacy Issue”
at its first edition held in Paris in 2017, and "Inequalities in
Internet Governance" at the second edition held in Cardiff in 2018, the
2019 GIG-ARTS conference will explore the role of Europe in the global
governance of the internet. In particular, the conference will focus on
challenges and opportunities, as well as strengths and weaknesses, of
European approaches to internet governance and policy-making.
In addition to general internet Governance issues and topics,
submissions are particularly welcome on the following themes:
- European institutions and Member States in internet governance;
- The European approach to the multistakeholder governance model;
- The role of the European External Action Service in the Global
Internet Governance ecosystem;
