Africa facing a new problematic of modernity

The advent of digital civilization has become a given in Africa. We're already in the age of nature or digital civilization, in a world that defines itself in relation to this new civilization, and that makes everyone situate themselves in relation to the digital world. As we can see, digital technology has set itself a new goal, namely to create a natural world in which it mediates man's relationship with the world and man's relationship with man. This assumes that there is no exteriority to the digital world, i.e. a world where people can live, speak, exist, be and evolve without going through the digital. In so doing, Africa must seek to adapt and rise to digital excellence for its well-being and survival. The aim of this study is to modestly open up a space for reflection on the possibilities of organizing ourselves so that this tool is used to the maximum possible extent and with propriety for sustainable development and harmonious living together in Africa.

Klappentext

The advent of digital civilization has become a given in Africa. We're already in the age of nature or digital civilization, in a world that defines itself in relation to this new civilization, and that makes everyone situate themselves in relation to the digital world. As we can see, digital technology has set itself a new goal, namely to create a natural world in which it mediates man's relationship with the world and man's relationship with man. This assumes that there is no exteriority to the digital world, i.e. a world where people can live, speak, exist, be and evolve without going through the digital. In so doing, Africa must seek to adapt and rise to digital excellence for its well-being and survival. The aim of this study is to modestly open up a space for reflection on the possibilities of organizing ourselves so that this tool is used to the maximum possible extent and with propriety for sustainable development and harmonious living together in Africa.
