The Internet is a complex of technologies and applications, not all of which are interrelated or develop at the same stage. Widely viewed as the first wave of an Age of Information, it is constantly being reshaped by new users. Advocates of the Internet see a structure of decentralized communication as the model of a new, universal culture and social organization of information that will sweep cultural differences. Such reflections on the cultural future of the Internet are as much a part of the phenomenon as its technological and organizational features. The Internet is not one thing but several: a physical infrastructure, the software and protocols that make it work, the tasks and values that the software and protocols implement, a social organization of regulation and communities of use, and a cultural context that includes reflection upon communication, information and knowledge. As the Internet spreads, alternative local and regional models emerge. Overseas Arabs brought Arab culture and politics to the Internet while it was developing in academic and research settings. But it is commerce and telecommunications developments that now bring the Internet to Arab countries. The Arabization of the Internet draws on the competing priorities and visions of relations between local orders and global processes.

Since the start of the new millennium, Arab countries have been affected by the US-led 'war on terror' and the pressures exerted by the US administration, which calls for political reforms and the spreading of democracy in the Middle East as part of its counter-terrorism campaign. In addition, Arab nations are experiencing the repercussions arising from the invasion of Iraq and the rebuilding of its political system. Along with these external effects, these countries are concurrently witnessing internal developments represented by the growing power of political Islam and the rise of popular movements and civil society organizations demanding democracy, freedom and human rights. In the context of these sociopolitical changes underway in the Arab world, it is vital to have an understanding of the dynamics, complexities and obstacles involved in spreading democracy in the region. This book examines the role of Arab political institutions, the influence of non-governmental organizations in furthering change and progress and the role played by the forces of political Islam in the process of transformation. Other matters closely related to the issue of modernization in Arab countries are also discussed, such as the importance of education as a basis for change and the potential role of Arab women in the field of development. Thus, the book contributes to the growing internal discussion on the issues of change, reform and modernization, which will shape the form and future of communities in the Arab world.

As the Internet diffuses across the globe, many have come to believe that the technology poses an insurmountable threat to authoritarian rule. Grounded in the Internet's early libertarian culture and predicated on anecdotes pulled from diverse political climates, this conventional wisdom has informed the views of policymakers, business leaders, and media pundits alike. Yet few studies have sought to systematically analyze the exact ways in which Internet use may lay the basis for political change. In O pen Networks, Closed Regimes, the authors take a comprehensive look at how a broad range of societal and political actors in eight authoritarian and semi-authoritarian countries employ the Internet. Based on methodical assessment of evidence from these cases--China, Cuba, Singapore, Vietnam, Burma, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt--the study contends that the Internet is not necessarily a threat to authoritarian regimes.
