Le fonti dell’ordinamento internazionale e la disciplina della Rete

Internet regulation and the international legal order sources

Abstract

The paper frames the international law regulation of the Internet through the study of some of its specific issues such as, in particular, the Requests for comments (RFCs), the legal consequences of the qualification of the Internet as common heritage of mankind and/or as a global public good, and the domain name system (DNS) regulation, in order to understand if it this fits into a broader trend towards the informalization of the international legal order, that is to say of both its normative procedures and sources.
