sovereignty. Examples of new practices of sovereignty are found in the documents of the
National Information Infrastrucure Advisory Council. Close analysis of these examples
reveals the disciplinary projects of spatial (re)construction implied by these new
practices. The effects of these types of spatial disciplinarity on individual subjectivities
are also discussed.
