Features: For the entire course of human history, the development of modern information technology and the formation of the network society are merely recent events. However, each of us not only lives in the present but also in the past—the "I" of today is actually composed of a series of past "I"s. Our legal systems are no exception. Therefore, based on the research paradigm of "technological progress causing social transformation, and social transformation requiring legal system reconstruction," this book divides the institutional changes brought by the internet into three parts: (1) It elaborates on the issue of legal system reconstruction in the network society from the perspectives of internet legislation, internet administration, internet security, and internet human rights; (2) Taking freedom of speech, privacy rights, consumer rights, property rights, copyright, and domain rights as examples of the most typical rights in the cyberspace, it provides a detailed analysis of the transformation of traditional rights in the network society; (3) From the perspective of internet dispute resolution, it examines the agreement on jurisdiction. This book is divided into three parts: One elaborates on the issue of legal system reconstruction in the network society from the perspectives of internet legislation, internet administration, internet security, and internet human rights; Two, taking freedom of speech, privacy rights, and consumer rights as examples, it provides a detailed analysis of the transformation of traditional rights in the network society.
