Abstract

One of the hallmarks of human evolution is the ability to transmit information. Conjointly, technological development, in the area of information and communication, has facilitated access to knowledge in various parts of the world. Even though cyberspace offers new and different possibilities for the future, it can and does create considerable legal challenges. The many reports and resolutions of the Criminal Law Section – General Part, XIX International Congress of Criminal Law IAPL – International Association of Criminal Law, highlights important points, which converge and diverge, in the construction of a normative model, based on critical mapping, for governance and criminal protection in cyberspace. Deductive reasoning and bibliographical research were the methods used in this study.
