Prof. Brandon Valeriano, the Bren Chair of Military Innovation at Marine Corps University, based in the USA, participates in Risk Roundup to discuss Cyber Politics.
Cyber Politics
As cyberspace creates
new ways for connecting and integrating to aquaspace, geospace, and space, its
growing interaction within and across nations: its government, industries,
organizations, and academia are creating complex challenges for the old concepts
of sovereignty, stability, and security. Moreover, the democratization of
information access to knowledge, and one another further creates new security vulnerabilities.
While the impact of
cyberspace on politics was largely ignored until now, the events over the years
have begun to identify its effect on the very core of politics. Understandably,
it is becoming a cause of great concern for not only national security, but international
relations, our core institutions, and the critical decision processes.
Also, the anonymity of
cyberspace is already challenging political leverage, influence, national
security, diplomacy, governments, governance models, thereby fundamentally shifting
the foundations of international relations, security, and peace.
There is a growing concern that the politicization
of cyberspace technologies: current layers, as well as emerging, is on its way.
Besides, cyberspace also has influenced politics, political operations, and
influence.
In short, cyberspace has
become an integral component of our lives and our way of living. It is also getting
deeply involved in politics, as well. It is, therefore, essential to understand
and evaluate:
Since the politicization of cyberspace is on its way, today, technology-triggered warfare is a more significant threat to the future of humanity. We need to explore ways to contain, control, and finally abolish all-out war for the survival of the human species. The question is whether we will be able to. The time is now to understand and evaluate Cyber Politics.
