Digital Constitution: Fundamental Rights and Freedoms of an Individual in a Totally Informational Society

Аннотация

The article analyzes the problems associated with the mismatch of speeds with which the processes of the formation of a totally digital society are taking place, and the creation of effective social (primarily legal) regulators for the new reality. The author believes that the unexpectedly, new emerging digital future should be viewed as a social revolution (break of continuity), which dictates the need to rapidly create mechanisms for the protection of a person, their basic rights and freedoms, including constitutional ones, in the digital world. This is a serious challenge for the social sciences and public administration practice not only in Russia, but throughout the world. The author raises the question of creating a digital law and developing a digital constitution, which should provide the necessary basis of consent and effective mechanisms for the establishment of a social order in cyberspace. The article outlines the main approaches to the creation of such a document.
