Re-Figuration von Räumen – serie

As an increasingly conflicted infrastructure, the materiality and spatiality of the Internet is continuously shaped and reshaped by strategic actions, spatial imaginaries, representations, and corresponding material figurations, asserting forms of spatial control over parts of the Internet infrastructure. The contributions to this volume are centered around the thesis of a refiguration of cyberspace, which ties in with the debates of recent years about the territorialization, fragmentation, pluralization, and splintering of the Internet. The contributors facilitate an interdisciplinary debate on the global transformation of the Internet and its digital infrastructures, focusing particularly on space and relational dynamics.
