The Domain Name System (DNS) is currently being expanded with a hitherto unprecedented number of new generic top level domains (gTLDs). The project examines the policy choices that led to the current expansion in light of economic theory on resource allocations.
Working paper:
Tobias Mahler and Lawrence B. Solum, ‘Operation, Delegation, Allocation: An Economic Perspective on the History of the Domain Name System’.
