Universe
From Ghost in the Shell Wiki
The world of Ghost in the Shell is a near-future interpretation of our own world, set in the mid 21st century.
For all intents and purposes, the GITS world is not an 'alternative' one, but in fact is presented as the future of our own world, directly referencing our own modern events. However as time progresses and the events of Ghost in the Shell 'don't happen', the world is destinated to become an alternative one, not an imagained future.
