Abstract

Cyberspace is an informational scheme built by the mingling of the telecommunications media and computer science. The Internet is one of its most important parts and it originated as an American defense strategy during the Cold War. With the end of the bipolar conflict, the network spread into other sectors and took on a global scale. Its force lies is in its decentralized organization, in the manipulation of information and actions carried out remotely, and in the absence of geopolitical limits. With its global power, cyberspace has been revealing itself as a field for the performance of local forces that, after informational consolidation in the digital territory takes place, it stimulates cultural transformations in the geopolitical territory.
