Sažetak
The century that has begun denotes the birth of a new world regime at the same time. That „novus ordo seclorum“ or „novus ordo mundi“ is characterized with the amazing step forward in technological and information sense, having serious consequences on all spheres of human actions. Insofar the modern criminal law, gradually but constantly, experiences transformation from the classic repressive instrument of discipline towards the new (preventive) concept of unobtrusive but omnipresent global surveillance resulting in gradual replacement of classic state power with global corporative power in the future. In other words, discipline ends to be the matter of criminal law (exclusively), just as the punishment will loose the status of the main criminal sanction one day. Such transformation will promote different and new policy of repression of criminal acts, which will be based on the surveillance and information as its supstrates, with certain risks for the protection of afirmated fundamental freedoms and human rights.
