The internet and child protection (Part 1)

Abstract

In the first of two articles, the potential of the internet for child victimisation by paedophiles and the challenges for controls that the technology poses are discussed. The concept of the internet and ‘cyberspace’ are explained and the consequences for new forms of sexual deviancy. The risks should be an issue for community safety.
