This groundbreaking examination of cybersex was originally published as a special issue of the journal Sexual Addiction and Compulsivity. It is a crucial resource for sex therapists, who until now had no rigorous study of the effect of online pornography on the patients they treat. It will also be of great interest to general marriage and family therapists who find themselves dealing with this issue with their clients, as well as others who are interested in the Internet as a social phenomenon. Cybersex: The Dark Side of the Force presents for the first time an empirical foundation for the discussion of cybersex compulsivity and its effect on the mental health of individuals, couples, teens, and young children.

With great potential benefit and possible harm, online social media platforms are transforming human society. Based on decades of deep exploration, distinguished scholar William Sims Bainbridge surveys our complex virtual society, harvesting insights about the future of our real world. Many pilot studies demonstrate valuable research methods and explanatory theories. Tracing membership interlocks between Facebook groups can chart the structure of a social movement, like the one devoted to future spaceflight development. Statistical data on the roles played by people in massively multiplayer online games illustrate the Silicon Law: information technology energizes both freedom and control, in a dynamic balance. The significance of open-source software suggests the traditional distinction between professional and amateur may fade, whereas web-based conflicts between religious and political groups imply that chasms are opening in civil society. This analysis of online space and the divergent communities is long overdue.

Pour la plupart des gens, le peer-to-peer évoque des réseaux où les utilisateurs peuvent échanger des documents. Michel Bauwens présente ici une vision bien plus large de ce concept qui est amené à s’étendre à tous les aspects de la vie. En effet, pour la première fois dans l’histoire, le peer-to-peer permet aux gens du monde entier de créer des choses ensemble une encyclopédie (Wikipédia), tout type d’objet (avec les imprimantes 3D) ou bien de financer des projets (avec le crowdfunding). Le modèle émergent du pair à pair veut contourner la logique de fausse abondance matérielle et de rareté artificielle de l’immatériel. L’auteur perçoit dans l’enchevêtrement apparent de phénomènes nouveaux tels que l’économie collaborative, l’open source, le crowdsourcing, les Fablabs, les micro-usines, le mouvement des makers, l’agriculture urbaine etc., un modèle qui nous mène vers une société post-capitaliste, où le marché doit se soumettre à la logique des communs. L’auteur dessine donc ici les énormes possibilités du nouveau système de pair à pair qui, loin de n’être qu’un nouveau mode de production, annonce en fait une révolution de la productivité qui va changer la société sur tous les plans ... Car c’est bien le germe d’un nouveau paradigme qui est en train de voir le jour au sein du capitalisme. Pour sauver le monde, une relocalisation de la production et un développement de la collaboration mondiale sur le plan des connaissances vont révolutionner notre façon de produire, de penser et de vivre ensemble.
