THE POLITICAL CULTURE IN THE CYBERSPACE. PROFILING THE CYBER SECURITY

Journal Title: Europolity - Continuity and Change in European Governance - Year 2018, Vol 12, Issue 1

Abstract

Concepts like cyberspace, cyber security, cyber war and other words from the same family are increasingly brought to attention either in media, public discourses or in everyday life. Probably the main reason is the high interconnection of what we call cyberspace with the real space, our everyday life. We are living a double life, one in the virtual space and the other in the physical one. But what would be the role of the state in this constellation? Are the characteristics of a state influencing the level of cybersecurity? Our aim in this article is to identify some of the factors that have an impact in the cyberspace. We will proceed by presenting the approaches on cyberspace in the selected countries. After that, we will continue with selecting the data for the chosen variables and we will effectuate the preliminary analyses of the selected data. Afterwards, we will move to the individual interpretation of the results, correlations and graphics.
