Information
Rotem Medzini is a PhD Candidate in Public Policy at the Federmann School of Public Policy and Government at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. In his PhD project, supervised by Prof. David Levi-Faur, Rotem is investigating multi-actor Internet governance through the premise of the policy instruments and the regulatory strategies that state and non-state actors adopt within their rule-making positions, rule-intermediary implementation, and rule-taking compliance actions. In his research projects, Rotem combines methods and understandings from regulation theory and network system theory to analyze how rule-makers within different Internet governance regimes hold a regulatory capacity capable to regulate information and content flow. Among his research interests are social media and digital content regulation, information privacy law and policy, regulation theory, online governance and self-regulation, intellectual property, and virtual worlds.
