Survey: Workshop on Internet Standard-Setting Research Methods
[not me - noted in passing] https://enquetes.univ-rennes2.fr/limesurvey/index.php/927992 The 2020 GigaNet Symposium and the publication of 'Researching Internet Governance’ inspired a workshop on Internet governance research methods for researching Internet standard-setting organizations. We would like to invite you to participate in this survey to aid in the planning and organization of this workshop. The date of the workshop and other logistical issues will be announced in due course. *Workshop Description* Internet governance is a complex arrangement of institutions, technical infrastructures and power (DeNardis, 2014). Standard-setting bodies play a crucial role in co-producing the Internet as a network of interoperable networks. As such, Internet governance scholars are exploring standardisation, using a variety of novel and established methods that range from quantitative discourse analysis to ethnography. This workshop aims to showcase the broad range of research methods used by Internet governance scholars from all disciplines to study these standard-setting bodies, such as the IETF, IEEE, W3C, WHATWG, 3GPP, ITU-T, ITU-R. It is also open to the study of "de-facto standardisation" that takes place outside of formal organisations and processes (Musiani and Ermoshina, 2017). *Goals:* This workshop aims to provide an opportunity for scholars and researchers to: - Explore and perhaps discover qualitative and quantitative methods applicable to standard setting for information networks - Discuss the feasibility of applying specific methods, - Improve the understanding of specific methods - Identify new and existing data sources, - Share open research questions and work-in-progress on methods, - Receive feedback to improve the methods. *Organising Committee* - Farzaneh Badii - Yale Law School - Corinne Cath - Oxford Internet Institute - Ricardo Nanni - Università di Bologna - Niels ten Oever - University of Amsterdam - Julien Rossi - Université catholique de l'Ouest & PREFICS - Rennes 2 *E-mail contact* : intgovworkshop@protonmail.com <https://mail.google.com/mail/?view=cm&fs=1&tf=1&to=intgovworkshop@protonmail.com> This workshop is supported by the Global Internet Governance Academic Network <https://www.giga-net.org/> (Giga-Net). There are 11 questions in this survey. -- -------------------------------------- Joly MacFie +12185659365 -------------------------------------- -
