In casting light on these issues, the book also describes the general role played by statute in Internet governance along with the reasons for that role. The book shows that contract is often preferred over statute because it enables flexible micro-management of the digital environment more easily than statute does UR - https://go.openathens.net/redirector/lords.parliament.uk?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780199687343.001.0001 ER -
