Ecologia Digital"This short paper lays out the key elements of the #neoroyalist order, differentiating it from the #Westphalian and #Liberal International Orders, and applies its insights to better grapple with the emerging system being promoted by the United States under Donald J. #Trump. For policymakers and scholars, the neo-royalist approach clarifies recent events in US foreign policy."
Don Curren 🇨🇦🇺🇦1 This piece arguing that #Trump represents a kind of “ #neo-royalism” offers some very useful perspective on a wide range of recent developments: “A failure to take off #Westphalian blinders could have far-reaching policy consequences, …” 🧵

Decentralized Web3 Reshaping Internet Governance: Towards the Emergence of New Forms of Nation-Statehood?
This article explores how decentralized Web3 is reshaping Internet governance by enabling the emergence of new forms of nation-statehood and redefining traditional concepts of state sovereignty. Based on fieldwork conducted in Silicon Valley since August 2022, this article systematically addresses the following research question: How is decentralized Web3 reshaping Internet governance and influencing the rise in new nation-statehood paradigms? It compares three emerging paradigms around Web3: (i) Network States (Srinivasan), envisioning digital entities rooted in crypto-libertarian principles; (ii) Network Sovereignties (De Filippi), emphasizing communal governance aligned with digital commons; and (iii) Algorithmic Nations (Calzada), drawing on Arendtian thought and demonstrating how communities—such as indigenous and stateless groups, as well as e-diasporas—can attain self-determination through data sovereignty. This article contributes a unique conceptual analysis of these paradigms based on fieldwork action research in Silicon Valley, responding to evolving technologies and their potential to reshape Internet governance. This article argues that decentralized Web3 provides a transformative vision for Internet governance but requires careful evaluation to ensure that it promotes inclusivity and equity. It advocates for a hybrid approach that balances global and local dynamics, emphasizing the need for solidarity, digital justice, and an internationalist perspective in shaping future Internet governance protocols.
