Reed: Internet Law takes a global view of the fundamental legal issues raised by the advent of the Internet as a global communications mechanism. The text helps the reader to understand the approaches and analytical methods which a lawyer requires when dealing with Internet-related issues and explains the issues which each country's law will need to resolve.
Included are extensive legal and other materials which support the discussion of how technological, economic and political factors are shaping the law governing the Internet. Trends in the development of these legal issues are addressed and the effectiveness of potential mechanisms for legal change, which are applicable to Internet law are also examined.
This new edition has been brought fully up to date.
