[Webinar-2014] Diplomacy and the invention of telephony and wireless communication

01 October 2014

online

Event description

After our overview of the telegraph’s impact on diplomacy, our next webinar will focus on the invention of the telephone and wireless communication. 

The telephone facilitated close contact among heads of state, including various ‘red lines’ for urgent communication. Some diplomatic issues – security, privacy, neutrality – that were raised in the international policy sphere surrounding telephony and wireless communication are still discussed today in the context of Internet governance.  
 
We are looking forward to e-seeing you on Wednesday, 1st October at 15:00 CET (13:00 GMT), as we continue to navigate through the evolution of diplomacy and technology. The webinar will be hosted by Jovan Kurbalija.
