Abstract

The digital era deeply influences the social and political features of the entire human community: it is related to the phenomenon of Global Governance, affecting the way of communicating, associating, getting and sharing information. It is a new period, and thus far, it needs important rules in several aspects. In this paper, we will talk about how this significant revolution influences, perhaps implements freedom and security and the consequent trade-off between the latters. We will start with some preliminary considerations about the formation of the State and how Global Governance compromises the ancient equilibrium, trying to establish a more open and internationalized worldwide community.
