Review Quotes:
"Over the last two decades, cyberspace has increasingly become a source of threat and instability. This excellent volume, which includes essays by some of the most important up-and-coming voices in the study of the politics of cyberspace, offers insights into how different actors, from powerful nation states to regional groupings to Big Tech, understand the insecurity and try to impose some sort of order. This book will be a useful addition to courses on international relations and cybersecurity, and of interest to scholars and practitioners." --Adam Segal, Council on Foreign Relations
"Creating political security in cyberspace is a wicked problem. The ability to reach agreements on a global scale are crippled by opposing ideological standpoints, mutual distrust, and diverging interests. We need to look at different bureaucratic units and actors beyond the state to understand both the stumbling blocks and the new potentials for breaking this deadlock. This is exactly what this book does. It combines fresh ideas and new voices belonging to the future generation of cybersecurity scholars in a most timely way. Well done!" --Myriam Dunn Cavelty, ETH Zürich
