Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: This paper explores the impact of transnational policy-actor networks and epistemic communities on perceived policy power in the United Nations-sponsored World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS). Specifically, it considers the extent to which membership in an epistemic community, levels of information and communication technology (ICT) policy activity, and perception of the influence of one’s own global policy network, help explain perceptions of policy power at WSIS. Using data drawn from an international survey of multistakeholder ICT policy leaders involved in WSIS (N=320), this paper uses structural equation modeling to specify “Perceived Policy Power” as a latent variable measurement model.
