Abstract

Cyberspace is a conceptual or digital space. Usually it refers to the existence of super distance or zero distance, manufactured by computer software, Internet, and virtual reality. It is not a physical space in real world. There is neither physical force in cyberspace, nor three-dimensional bound. It may be the multi-dimensional, non-seriate and self-mapped space. Its emergence, in general, is defined by human needs and knowledge, and it always is changing along with the ideological changes. But it possesses the geometrical characteristics and a good many social functions. It is reconfiguring the procedures of modernistic society and the structure of global politics, stimulating the economy of signs or the information economy, and promoting the real space to turn about cyberspace in social practices and daily lives of human beings.
