Abstract

The purpose of this article is to develop policy proposals for political parties in order to create a Cyber Politics Vision Document (SPVD) on the cyber domain, which encompasses every area of our lives and deepens its influence with new technologies such as blockchain technology, the Internet of Things (IoTs), mobile technology, cloud technology and big data.

It is difficult for a political party to ignore cyberspace, which is becoming more and more important day by day, to receive the support of digital citizens in general, digital natives in particular, or the Z generation. Naturally, when developing cyber-related policies, a political party should prioritize positive security based on a rights-based understanding that targets a free and safe cyberspace. This study provides a design for the structure, scope and theoretical framework of a cyber-politics vision / strategy document within the framework of this approach.
