Concluding remarks – Bibliography -- Index 000041005 520__ $$aThis topical book critically examines the regulatory framework for generic Top-Level Domains (gTLDs) on the Internet. The regulation drawn up by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) applies at a global level, complementing national and international law. These rules form part of a growing body of transnational private regulation. Generic Top-Level Domains offers a clear and engaging analysis of how ICANN has tackled a diverse set of regulatory issues related to the introduction of new gTLDs, such as property rights, competition and consumer protection. Studying recent case law, the book argues for a stronger focus on procedural fairness for future introductions of new gTLDs. It also highlights how ICANN’s contractual framework regulates the registration and use of domain names and argues that ICANN’s regulatory authority ought to be clarified in order to avoid regulatory overreach. Uniquely comprehensive, this book will appeal to students and scholars with an interest in Internet governance, domain name law and transnational private regulation. Practitioners working in the domain name industry will also find this a valuable resource. 000041005 588__ $$aDescription based on print record. 000041005 650_0 $$aInternet domain names$$xLaw and legislation. 000041005 650_0 $$aTrade regulation. 000041005 650_0 $$aLaw and globalization. 000041005 650_0 $$aInternational law. 000041005 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000041005 85641 $$uhttps://www.elgaronline.com/view/9781786435132.xml$$yView eBook 000041005 904__ $$aBook 000041005 980__ $$aOS
