The Political Mapping of Cyberspace : Cartography, Communication and Power

This text is about the politics of cyberspace. It shows that cyberspace is no mere virtual reality but a rich geography of practices and power relations.

Using concepts and methods derived from the work of Michel Foucault, Jeremy Crampton explores the construction of digital subjectivity, web identity and authenticity, as well as the nature and consequences of the digital divide between the connected and those abandoned in limbo.
