The Internet has become a “space” where the “consumer-actor” addresses the consumer. Unable to remain outside these transactions, brand-names are organizing to stake out positions on the Web. A “living space” is taking shape, but codes of good conduct for transactions have to be created
I - A few examples of revolutions
The Internet, the new languages of customer relations
By Emmanuel Richard Ingénieur Télécom ParisTech
Internet est devenu un espace où le « consomm-acteur » s’adresse au consommateur. Les marques ne peuvent pas rester à l’écart de ces échanges et s’organisent pour réinvestir le Web. Un espace à vivre s’organise, et des codes d’échange et de bonne conduite doivent encore être créés…
The Internet has modified the relations between patients and care-givers. The new relation is based on increasing the patient’s participation in knowledge about the illness and in the prescription and administration of treatments. In this new context, questions arise about sharing the financial burden. The efforts to satisfy patients aspiring to become, as much as possible, actors in their own health will turn them into consumers who contribute to a new economic equilibrium of the health sector.
Tomorrow… participatory health

Cyberwar challenges all traditional conceptions of the art of warfare. There are no longer attacks on a front. Instead, the enemy acts under cover. Nor are nation-states the only targets. The private sector has also come under attack, especially in a context of economic warfare. All armies have the duty of taking this new development into account when designing their military strategy

Cybercrime, like many forms of delinquence, is constantly changing under the impact of technological trends and new practices. It is a field for technical, operational and legal experimentation. This article presents a snapshot of the fight against cybercrime in mid-2010

Will the digital revolution never end? No end seems in sight, since the technological seeds sown by WW II, the landing on the moon and the clusters of inventions related to new terminals and the virtual universe. Along with all of this has come emphatic talk about an “information society” and a new economy during the mid-1990s, about the bursting of the Internet bubble and the convergence of the media as of the Web 1.0, and, nowadays, about the promises borne by cloud-computing
II – The reconstruction of economic, legal and human relations
Digital revolution(s) in culture industries

New practices in the digital universe entail several changes that bring existing models under question. We, mere consumers, are being turned into active participants in this new digital economy. New players are emerging alongside traditional operators in this field, whence the relevance of questions about the redistribution of the value added by these activities
New economic models for Internet societies

The “special” domain of law with regard to the Internet is grounded on classical law about commerce, liability, etc. The latter has been adapted to the Web. The philosophy guiding the formation of this special domain of law has been to regulate the Internet without hindering its development

How have the social sciences dealt with questions about the socialization — or lack thereof — of surfers on the Web? A look back on a debate running through studies of the Internet conducted in recent years…

Web 2.0 and the follow-up

Digital networks are no longer designed in relation to virtuality alone. They directly link with a physical territory and provide tools for facilitating the “uses” made of a city. We are entering a new era of an informational ecology in public places

As a universal network connecting all cybernauts at the planetary level, cyberspace enables users to break free of the boundaries imposed by a territory and by the body and, too, from the weight of institutions and governments.
The Web, a new territory and old concepts
By Pierre Musso
Professeur à l'Université de Rennes 2 et à Télécom ParisTech
Built on existing technology — the HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol), the URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) for assigning a Web resource an identification, etc. — the Semantic Web has, through the ever more active participation of the community of Internet surfers, become a new stage in the rationale of sharing, which characterizes the Web today

The Internet of objects is an extension of the Internet toward all objects that communicate directly or indirectly through electronic equipment connected to the Web. This new dimension raises major technological, economic and societal issues, not to mention those related to governance
The Internet of objects: Fact or fiction

The use of the Internet day after day provides rather similar possibilities to each of us: find, thanks to search engines such as Google, the information or services we need (trips, leisure activities, culture, business information, social networks, etc.) and, of course, use these services as simply as possible to accomplish planned tasks. Our patience with the imperfections of websites is growing ever thinner, while our life depends ever more on the Web. Evidence of this is our increasing use of the Web for buying goods of all sorts or for electronic banking
