Aufbauend auf einer kürzlich veröffentlichten Special Issue des hauseigenen Quarterly Magazine lud das Centre for Global Cooperation Research zu einer Online-Debatte über Einheit und Vielfalt im globalen Internet ein. Führende Kommentator*innen dieser internationalen Debatte entwickelten konträre Argumente zu diesem Thema: (1) was bedeuten "Integration" und "Fragmentierung" des Internets; (2) warum sind Einheit und/oder Vielfalt im globalen Internet wünschenswert (oder nicht); und (3) was verspricht die Zukunft in Bezug auf ein vereintes oder diversifiziertes globales Internet?
