 The Normative Order of the Internet: A Theory of Rule and Regulation Online by Matthias C. Kettemann English | Sep 27, 2020 | ISBN: 0198865996 | 384 pages | PDF | 4,6 MB There is order on the internet, but how has this order emerged and what challenges will threaten and shape its future? This study shows how a legitimate order of norms has emerged online, through both national and international legal systems. It establishes the emergence of a normative order of the internet, an order which explains and justifies processes of online rule and regulation. This order integrates norms at three different levels (regional, national, international), of two types (privately and publicly authored), and of different character (from ius cogens to technical standards).  Alastair Wilson, "The Nature of Contingency: Quantum Physics as Modal Realism" English | 2020 | ISBN: 0198846215 | PDF | pages: 230 | 1.1 mb This book defends a radical new theory of contingency as a physical phenomenon. Drawing on the many-worlds approach to quantum theory and cutting-edge metaphysics and philosophy of science, it argues that quantum theories are best understood as telling us about the space of genuine possibilities, rather than as telling us solely about actuality. When quantum physics is taken seriously in the way first proposed by Hugh Everett III, it provides the resources for a new systematic metaphysical framework encompassing possibility, necessity, actuality, chance, counterfactuals, and a host of related modal notions.
