Abstract
This paper will make theoretical overview of internet governance and its implementation as a global politics goal for the states.
As known, internet governance is the complementary development and application by governments, the private sector, civil
society and the technical community, in their respective roles, of shared principles, norms, rules, decision-making procedures, and
activities that shape the evolution and use of the Internet.
In the paper is given focus of digitalization as a common global political priority for the states, as well as theoretical descriptive
overview of the shared recommendations from the United Nations and Council of Europe related to implementation on internet
governance.
The paper will emphasize as well on building on line democracy, as well as on improving and straightening e-democracy,
protecting human rights and rule of law in digital era.
At the end of the paper, we conclude that the power of Information and Communication Technologies have a great potential to
accelerate human progress, to ensure that public policy for the Internet is people-centred in order to build democracy online, to
protect Internet users, and to ensure respect and protection for human rights online. We will also conclude that in future is also
important for the states to ensure that public policy for the Internet is people-centred in order to build democracy online, to protect
Internet users, and to ensure respect and protection for human rights online.
