Proposal Title:
Cyber-Neo-socialism in International Relations: Case Study: Social and Political Implications of Transnational IT Industry Competition

Background of the Study:
The phenomenon of hacktivism is the marriage of political activism and computer hacking. It defines hacktivism as the nonviolent use of illegal or legally ambiguous digital tools in pursuit of political ends. These tools include web site defacements, redirects, denial-of-service attacks, information theft, web site parodies, virtual sit-ins, virtual sabotage, and software development.
This phenomenon creating competition in transnational industry especially in IT area, which has get influence from their interest. Interest in the global diffusion of technology has also been purred by arguments that it may increase knowledge diffusion through improving communication efficiency (e.g. Jovanovic and Rob, 1989), improve political engagement (Norris, 2001), and allow developing countries to "leapfrog" traditional methods of increasing productivity (Steinmueller, 2003). In this light, the striking international differences in information and communication technology (ICT) diffusion that exist today, often referred to as the "Global Digital Divide," may pose a serious challenge to policymakers.
The issues that hacktivism targets are as varied as its forms. A survey of some of the best-known incidents of hacktivism shows that certain clusters of issues, and certain lines of conflict, appear most frequently: cyberwars between India and Pakistan, Israel and Palestine, and China and the US (as well as general activism against Chinese censorship); anti-globalization hacktivism; anti-corporate hacktivism; actions on behalf of national independence; hacker issue activism; social conservative hacktivism; and domestic US politics.
Hacktivists come from two distinct political cultures. One is the hacker programmer culture, itself embedded in the broader social and political culture of the Internet. Another stream of hacktivists comes from the world of post-modern left, and its community of progressive artist-activists. These two backgrounds translate into very different identities – and very different kinds of hacktivist practice.
It identifies three distinct types of hacktivism: political cracking, performative hacktivism, and political coding. Political cracking is conducted by hacktivists from hacker-programmer activism, and consists of forms of hacktivism that are consistent with what I call an “outlaw” orientation. These are the most illegal forms of hacktivism such as defacements, redirects, denial of service attacks, sabotage, and information theft. Political coding is also undertaken by hacktivists from hacker-programmer backgrounds, but these hacktivists have a “transgressive” rather than an outlaw orientation; they work in the legally ambiguous zone of political software development. Finally, we have performative hacktivism, which is practiced by hacktivists from artist-activist backgrounds who have a transgressive orientation. Its forms are website parodies and virtual sit-ins, most often as part of anti-corporate, anti-globalization, or
pro-independence protests.
Political coding consists of hackers turning their technical skills into transgressive politics. These hackers are, metaphorically at least, the older brothers of political crackers. Many of the hackers who participate in political coding started out as nonpolitical hackers, programmers or crackers, and came to political coding as an outgrowth of that activity. They typically adhere to the hacker convention of using handles (or pseudonyms), though the real names that correspond to most of these handles are relatively easy to ascertain.
Political coding so far reflects the cyber-libertarian worldview described by Barbrook and Cameron (1995), Katz (1997), Norris (2001) and others in their description of Internet political culture. This cyber-libertarian ideology emphasizes individual rights, especially online rights, as the most important political good. This viewpoint explains why political coding has focused entirely on issues that are directly related to the hacker community.
the hacker “quest for knowledge” translated into a particular politics, which has to some degree become identified as the politics of the Internet more broadly. The motherhood issues for hackers – and the Internet community more generally – are:
1. freedom of speech, and in particular the fight against online censorship, reflecting hackers’ view that “information wants to be free”.
2. privacy rights, especially online, reflecting hackers’ mistrust of authority.
3. intellectual property freedoms, like the ability to share traditionally copyrighted text, music or video files online, again reflecting the view that “information wants to be free”.
4. open standards, which ensure interoperability of the Internet, as opposed to the private standards promulgated by Microsoft and others through the creation of for-profit networks and tools. and
5. free or open source software, which permit various kinds of modification and distribution, reflecting hackers’ quest to use technology for continuous improvement, and to continuously improve technology.
This political agenda manifested itself in a number of illegal hacking (“cracking”). Campaigns, long before the phenomenon of “hacktivism” is usually said to have emerged.
Strategies of policy circumvention fall outside the models of transnational politics that are emerging from research into the anti-globalization, human rights and environmental movements. These models have successfully directed attention towards transnational civil society actors as a growing source of challenge to nation-states, focusing on challenges that come in the form of efforts at policy change.

Main Problems:
Why neo-socialism can growth up in cyber world

Conceptual Framework / Theoretical Framework:
For knowing this problem, I’m using some theory to creating this thesis.
1. Post-modern politics from Best and Kellner which described a politicization of all spheres of social and personal existence. Postmodern models of politics are trying to redefine the "political" based on changes in society, technology, economics, and everyday life.
2. Transnationalism from Randolph Bourne which describe a social movement grown out of the heightened interconnectivity between people all around the world and the loosening of boundaries between countries.
3. Information society from Fritz Machlup which writes information society is a society in which the creations, distribution, diffusion, use, and manipulation of information is a significant economic, political, and cultural activity.
4. Structuralism from Ferdinand de Saussure is A language is a system in which all the elements fit together, and in which the value of anyone element depends on the simultaneous coexistence of all the others
5. Structuralism in sociology is a sociological paradigm which addresses what social functions various elements of the social system perform in regard to the entire system.

From some this theory and background, I would creating this thesis to completing my studied in University of Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta.

Hypothesis:
Neo-socialism can growth up in cyber world because their has interest in the global diffusion of technology has also been purred by arguments that it may increase knowledge diffusion through improving communication efficiency, improve political engagement, and allow developing countries to "leapfrog" traditional methods of increasing productivity which the hacker “quest for knowledge” translated into a particular politics, which has to some degree become identified as the politics of the Internet more broadly
