Conference

Ethics and Cyberculture


This conference addressed the new community being formed on the Internet and the change in personal interaction and organization. Such questions were discussed as how will communities be formed on the Internet?, how will social interaction change and will the moral imperatives of the past apply in the future?, and how should we balance the rights of the individual with that of the community? Patrick Sullivan stresses that we must see the Internet, not as a deterministic process, but as a consequence of our actions.
