This book is an attempt of modelled personal ethics application in order to new cyberspace ethics conditions. The purpose of my monograph is the theoretical construction and the display of personal cyberspace ethics project, which can comprise ethical model of human operations assessment in cyberspace from the human value and dignity perspective. This construction takes into account the current state of the virtual world, shaped by the processes of development of digital technologies. In the book shows to present models of behavioral norms and human operations as a person in an artificial world of technological thought products. The book is theoretical and analytical aproach, which deals with synthetic personal model of cyberspace ethics from the perspective of subject knowledge on the basis of the reference literature, as well as showing ethical challenges and dangers for human in cyberspace based on own empitical analysis performed through observation, focused research, qualitative analysis of cyberspace content and problem discussions. Moreover, in monograph the method of synthesis analysis was assumed, the analysis of available text sources was concluded as well as the method of evaluative analysis was implemented, which deals with media and its contents research. The application of just analytical-theoretical method would be insufficient in order to comprehensive presentation of problematics, that is why the qualitative analysis of cyberspace content was used. The book consists of two parts. In the first part the analysis of available international cyberspace definitions was accessed. The author attempts to systematize concepts in interdisciplinary context. The anthropological and cultural context was also considered, showing the digitize and networking of social relationship processes. In second part the author concentrates on ethical model search, which could determine the basis of universal and comprehensive project of cyberspace ethics. The starting point are sugestions of available regulations, ethical codes as well as attempts of legal, national and international normativity. Personal project of cyberspace ethics seems to be the best and the most universal guarantor of responsible participation in cyberspace.
