Welcome to the third issue of Policy & Internet for 2011. We are pleased to present six articles, all of which focus on a substantive public policy issue arising from widespread use of the Internet: the links between software piracy and country corruption, voter targeting online in political campaigns, cultural aspects of digital citizenship, the increasingly ‘conditional’ nature of governments’ public and social policies, policy responses to the growing problem of online hate speech, and policy considerations for the regulation of cross-border data flows. You may access any of the articles below at no charge. EditorialHelen Z. Margetts ArticlesCorruption and Software Piracy: A Comparative Perspective Antonio R. Andrés and Rajeev K.

Guest Editors: Rik Crutzen, Guodong (Gordon) Gao. About this journalFrom the Oxford Internet Institute and the Policy Studies Organization,Policy & Internet is the first major peer-reviewed journal investigating the implications of the Internet and associated technologies for public policy. The Internet is now the most important international medium of communication and information exchange, embedded in interactions between citizens, firms, governments, and NGOs, and bringing with it new practices, norms, and structures. The societal shift enabled by the Internet has major implications for public policy in all sectors, requiring rigorous empirical investigation, theoretical development, and methodological innovation across academic disciplines. Policy & Internet will be the premier venue for scholars and researchers to set the public policy agenda in the digital era. Policy & Internet is indexed in PAIS International (CSA), and WorldCat. |
