This book discusses the international legal issues underlying internet governance and proposes that an international internet law is required to solve the resulting problems. It encompasses a wide spectrum of current debates surrounding the governance of the internet and emphasizes the subjects that urgently need international debate.

The book sets out the various issues which require urgent attention from the international community in order to sustain the proper functioning of the network that forms the foundation of the global information society. Among the topics discussed are cybercrime, cyberterrorism, protecting intellectual property, e-government, on-line privacy and e-taxation. The book takes a comparative approach looking at how different jurisdictions including the U.S., the EU, China and Singapore have attempted various solutions to these problems. Joanna Kulesza goes on to argue that the problem of international internet governance requires an international internet law.
