Synopsis
A detailed examination of how the underlying technical structure of the Internet affects the economic environment for innovation and the implications for public policy.
Today -- following housing bubbles, bank collapses, and high unemployment -- the Internet remains the most reliable mechanism for fostering innovation and creating new wealth. The Internet's remarkable growth has been fueled by innovation. In this pathbreaking book, Barbara van Schewick argues that this explosion of innovation is not an accident, but a consequence of the Internet's architecture -- a consequence of technical choices regarding the Internet's inner structure that were made early in its history.
The Internet's original architecture was based on four design principles: modularity, layering, and two versions of the celebrated but often misunderstood end-to-end arguments. But today, the Internet's architecture is changing in ways that deviate from the Internet's original design principles, removing the features that have fostered innovation and threatening the Internet's ability to spur economic growth, to improve democratic discourse, and to provide a decentralized environment for social and cultural interaction in which anyone can participate. If no one intervenes, network providers' interests will drive networks further away from the original design principles. If the Internet's value for society is to be preserved, van Schewick argues, policymakers will have to intervene and protect the features that were at the core of the Internet's success.

Hardback. Condition: Very Good. This work analyzes the right to citizenship in prison in Sergipe and discusses how citizenship can be a mechanism for the realization of human rights. The work is the result of the experience of the research project entitled Profile of Prisoners in the State of Sergipe and Identification of Public Policies for Former Prisoners, funded by the Sergipe State Foundation for Research and Technological Innovation (FAPITEC) between 2012 and 2013. This study was carried out using the qualitative-quantitative method, using data provided by the Public Security Secretariat, as well as information gathered by applying questionnaires in Sergipe prisons. The results made it possible to conclude that the conditions in Sergipe's prisons are inadequate for the prison population and that the democratic component is indispensable if there is to be a change in the way the Penitentiary System is viewed and, consequently, if public policies on social rights are to be drawn up.
