Description

Free Internet Access as a Human Right presents a compelling philosophical argument for recognizing universal internet access as a fundamental human right. Merten Reglitz investigates how digital connectivity has become essential for employment, education, healthcare, and civic participation in the 21st century.

The book explores the tension between market-driven internet provision and the need for equitable access across all populations and geographic regions. Reglitz examines case studies from developed and developing nations, analyzing policy approaches and implementation challenges. He addresses questions of digital inequality, the digital divide, and how governments can ensure meaningful access for marginalized communities.

Through rigorous philosophical analysis combined with practical policy considerations, this work makes the case that internet access transcends convenience and has become vital infrastructure comparable to electricity and water. Essential reading for policymakers, academics, and anyone concerned with digital justice and human rights in an increasingly connected world.
