This survey focuses on some pre-Internet networked communities under military authority that linked and fueled certain economic policies, ways of life, and worldviews that are embedded into global networked society (neoliberalism, various polarizations, surveillance and datafication, etc.). Research touches on many aspects of the pre-history of the Internet, during the Cold War, and involves a variety of contexts.
