Abstract

It is netizen civilization era, the era in which economic booming and the entrance of information and communication technology have led us to the concept of cyberspace citizen (netizen). Prevalent drug trading and human trafficking have generated a moral crisis and broken religious belief. Human beings live in profane setting bringing the world to materialism way. Religious life is replaced with prevalent offering of profane life, coupled with prevalent trans-national crime, civil war in East Europe, horizontal conflict, and hedonistic generation’s boisterousness. Domestically, Indonesia has entered into reformation era (Purwasito: 2003) in any sectors. The state tries to deal with the economic crisis, to reform bureaucracy, to eradicate corruption, and to improve public participation in democratization process such as accomplishing the General Election. Despite unsatisfactory result, the intention of reformation ideals and the intention to change the life into the better one have been implemented sincerely. Since the inception of reformation coming suddenly like flood without roadmap, we cannot perform good governance correctly immediately. Amid political and economic problem messiness, in social public domain, we have experienced a shift called citizen mutation characterized with the change of citizen’s character from citizen to netizen. Such change starts a new era of citizen civilization, its difference and effect are very significant on any aspects of life within society, particularly in communication pattern.
