[ecrea] Internet Policy Review Special Issue 'Doing Internet Governance'

please find below a link to the special issue of Internet Policy Review 
titled: "Doing internet governance: practices, controversies, 
infrastructures, and institutions." It was edited by Dmitry Epstein, 
Christian Katzenbach, and myself.

Briefly: This special issue makes an argument for, and illustrates, the 
applicability of a science and technology studies (STS) informed 
approach to internet governance research. The conceptual framework put 
forward in this editorial and the articles composing this issue add to 
the mainstream internet governance scholarship by unpacking macro 
questions of politics and power. They do so through the analysis of the 
mundane and taken-for-granted practices and discourses that constitute 
the design, regulation, maintenance, and use of both technical and 
institutional arrangements of internet governance. Together, this body 
of work calls to rethink how we conceptualise both internet and governance.

The issue includes an editorial and 10 articles:
