- Abstract
Crime evolves over time the rapid development of technology is one of the reasons of the shifting of crimes which were previously only committed in the real world with conventional crimes. Sexual prostitution and sexual exploitation of children which has long stories across centuries, can now also be carried out in the virtual world (cyber space) using technological devices such as computers, laptops and sophisticated mobile phones and via internet networks. As with the phenomenon of prostitution, which previously could only be done through face-to-face dating, but now they were online and even the payments can by digital transactions, using financial technology such as digital wallets. Identity flexibility is thought to be one of the factors of the online prostitution increased, anyone can change their original identity in cyberspace, and often the perpetrators and the victims are underage. The normative legal research method with library research were used in this research. This paper aims to conduct a study related to understanding the nature and behaviour of child sexual exploitation in cyberspace through a criminological focus study on space transition theory as an advance development of criminology, so that the results of this study are expected to be positive feedback for criminal law reform as especially in penal reform and for law enforcement stake holders to understanding and seeking answers from the root cause of this phenomenon.
