*/Call for Abstracts - Deadline: 26 February 2023
/*While during the early stage of Internet development security concerns
were generally dealt with as a regulation matter with law enforcement
authorities fighting cybercrime, cybersecurity has recently become one
of the most debated and controversial issue in the field of internet
governance.
Cyberattacks have changed in nature and intensity: their growing
number; the variety of their targets (public institutions, critical
infrastructures and utilities, large and strategic companies); in some
cases the terrorist and/or quasi-military objectives of their proven or
alleged authors, sponsors or beneficiaries; the expansion of their
surface, making profit of digitalization progresses in all sectors;
together with the escalation of geopolitical tensions and conflicts; are
all features pushing cybersecurity issues to the top of the agendas of
both public and private actors.
The increasing relevance of cybersecurity is reshaping state powers,
public administration, private businesses, civil society and academic
research as well. New agencies, procedures, and structures have been
institutionalised both by national governments and international
organisations to deal with cybersecurity policy problems. New power
relations are being established, both inside and beyond the state.
Governments, both at the national and local levels, are still struggling
to find their own governance structures and set of instruments in the
range of different cybersecurity models (e.g. cyber defence, cyber
offence, cyber resilience, etc.) and their possible implementations.
The provision of public goods and services is undergoing a
profound re-design and re-engineering process led by cybersecurity
concerns, that implies new models of citizenship and new modes of public
administration. Private companies are facing new challenges, often
dealing with a shortage of skills and competences of the workforce,
while new companies and new business models are emerging around the
transnational market of cybersecurity.
At the global level, states, through their representatives at the
United Nations and its different bodies, confirmed that international
law applies online as it does offline. They also identified the need to
better understand how international law could be applied in cyberspace,
with issues of attribution, liability, sovereignty, rule of law and due
diligence being raised. Given the multistakeholder feature of global
internet governance, private companies have also jumped in with their
own proposals, promoting their roles as possible norms entrepreneurs.
Technical management and standardisation organisations have a prominent
role to play as well when dealing with global cybersecurity.
As a consequence, new research agendas and scientific perspectives
on cybersecurity are consolidating, shaping a novel multidisciplinary
field of inquiry that is not only exceeding the original field of
internet governance, but seems also phagocytizing it: internet
governance as an issue of cybersecurity governance.
After having addressed “Global Internet Governance as a Diplomacy Issue”
at its first edition in 2017, “Overcoming Inequalities in Internet
Governance” in 2018, “Europe as a Global Player in Internet Governance”
in 2019, “Online Information Governance” in 2020, and “Global Internet
Governance and International Human Rights” in 2022, the European
Multidisciplinary Conference on Global Internet Governance Actors,
Regulations, Transactions and Strategies turns its attention this year
to the governance of cybersecurity, in view of further investigating and
inquiring the political, economic and epistemic transformations
connected to the rise of cybersecurity and how they impact on democracy
and human rights.
In addition to general internet governance issues and topics,
submissions are particularly welcome on the following themes:
- Cybersecurity and democracy: civil liberties and human rights;
- Cybersecurity, citizenship and digital sovereignty;
- Institutionalisation of cybersecurity as a field of public policy;
- From cybersecurity to cyber resilience: risk analysis,
organisational challenges and capacity building;
- Models and typologies of cybersecurity;
- Relationships between cybersecurity and internet governance;
- New theoretical frameworks and methods for the study of cybersecurity;
- Cybersecurity and public administration digitalization;
- The cybersecurity market and business models;
- New technological developments and cybersecurity;
- Cybersecurity narratives: policy discourses, cultures and ideologies;
- Cybersecurity strategies, policies, instruments, and their
implementation;
- Multilateral and multistakeholder discussions and instruments for
the global governance of cybersecurity;
- Cybersecurity in international relations: cyber warfare, cyber
peace, diplomacy and international law;
- Cybersecurity in Europe Union strategy and policies.
