The principle of Network Neutrality prescribes that all data packets that are being sent through the Internet must be treated equally with respect to their origin, destination and content. It has recently achieved much attention by policymakers in the US and Europe and is debated very controversially. This book seeks to advance this debate by providing a scientific and unbiased view on Network Neutrality, and the related issue of Open Access as policy instruments to counteract the anticipated scarcity of telecommunications infrastructure. The book comprises articles by leading international legal and economic scholars as well as by policymakers on the possible effects of Network Neutrality and Open Access regulation and thus offers a holistic and interdisciplinary viewpoint on these issues.
