Digital Technology and Social Transformation

This book was an opportunity to deal with a topical issue: the role of intellectuals today in the face of influencers who have taken over. Influencers have become stars, analysts and advisors, generally without talent or real knowledge. There’s no doubt that digital technology has completely invaded our lives. We are now witnessing a major social transformation resulting from its influence and impact on the use of technology in all areas. It has therefore become imperative to discuss the implications for our public life, particularly moral, social, cultural and scientific, in order to find effective solutions, or at least try to educate young people about the need to use common sense and caution when using the internet and when engaging in senseless and pointless influences. To enter the digital world, we must first prepare ourselves. Indeed, public life is now closely linked to the Internet, so we need to adapt to these evolutions and transformations.
