Abstract
In the last few years there has been increasing discussion about whether “Cybercri-minology” needs to be established in the course of digitalization as a new subject area in criminology. The following text points out that we need something more than just a kind of „Cybercriminology“, which focuses on the conditions and the specifics of Internet crime. What we need is a comprehensive “Criminology of the digital” that takes into account the social transformations caused by digitalization as a whole and processes them in connection with the phenomenon of deviation and the mechanisms of social control and prevention. The focus of this new disci-pline should be the systemic character of the digital network as a crime-generating macrostructure as well as the new behavior control techniques of data tracking and data rating.
