Value Aspects of the Communities Spatial Organization in the Post Global Age

Abstract

This paper describes and compares the prerequisites for the formation of post-global ethical principles while preserving and intensifying digital infrastructure based on the network structuring of information and physical space. A connection is made between different types of networks and possible ethical models for the development of modern and future communities. At first, we turn to the sociology of space, and in the second - to the etymology of the word "network", as well as the theories of social exchange, actor-network theory, and the theory of network communication by Castells. We will analyse the trends of social and network structuring based on the theoretical analysis. We consolidate this analysis in terms of ethics of the information network empire, which is built based on the tendency of dominance of information and communication networks over space; and attempts to rethink this trend towards the predominance of space over the network in the backbone infrastructure - the ethics of spatial connectivity. Let's consider the possibility of correlating the ethics of spatial relations with the current situation in the sphere of the development of the space of Russia, specified in the "Strategy 2025" and housing construction. At the end, we will make a conclusion about the space, network, and ethical relationship.
An important question that we must answer is how we want to see a modern person — a "bait in a spider's web" or a group subject mastering a living space with developed individual traits.
