Abstract
Cyberspace (and Communications Technology (CT) in general) and law are linked reflexively and should be looked at as two sets of forces which will operate on each other at the same time. This means that it is wrong to merely examine them as if they were separate. Looking at CT and law, as part of a reflexive relationship which interacts in a dynamic world, it becomes clear that the potentially positive force of CT must deal with existing flaws within legal systems. This article will note systemic problems in legal systems, present and future trends which will operate on legal systems and some potentially negative synergies with CT. It will argue accordingly for a preventive and proactive approach.
