全球网络空间治理的未来:主权、竞争与共识

The Future of the Global Cyberspace Governance: Sovereignty, Competition and Consensus

当前国际社会围绕网络空间治理展开了异常激烈的博弈,一方面说明大国对网络空间治理的话语权和规则制定的重视,另一方面也说明网络空间自由主义的式微。国际社会在网络空间需要治理这一问题上取得了基本的共识。由于国际社会在网络空间的属性问题上存在"全球公域说"和"网络主权"说两种截然不同的主张,在网络空间治理上也存在严重的分歧和矛盾。在网络自由主义衰退的大背景下,在看似存在尖锐分歧的具体治理领域,国际社会在网络空间治理上的共识基础也在不断增强。全球网络空间政治是现实国际政治的真实反映,在博弈中谋求合作,在分歧中拓展共识,将是国际社会在网络空间治理中的常态。

Currently, there has been a hot debate in the international community on the governance of cyberspace. This illustrates that the major powers pay attention to the rulemaking authority for the governance of the Internet on the one hand, and also shows the decline of the cyber liberalism on the other hand. The international community has reached a consensus that the cyberspace needs to be governed. But there are two distinct viewpoints about the nature of cyberspace— ＂global commons＂ and ＂Internet sovereignty＂, so there are serious differences and conflicts in cyberspace governance. Against the background of the declining Internet liberalism, in the specific areas of governance where sharp differences seem to exist, the consensus of the international community over cyberspace governance is increasing. The global cyberspace politics is a true reflection of the realistic international politics. Seeking cooperation while competing with other nations, and expanding consensus amidst the differences, will be the normal in cyberspace governance in the international community.
