The survey of this conception is to identify the relationship of digital citizen and it's potentialities and non-potentialities with digital state in current world by suggesting some case studies (such as Coronavirus crisis, genetics, digital city and artificial intelligence), in which, the ways of digital citizen living through digital network of political power will be identified.
