This book covers the work of Erik W. Aslaksen who continues to develop the view of society and its evolution published in earlier work – The Social Bond (Springer 2018), The Stability of Society (Springer 2020), and Measures of Social Evolution (Springer 2021), bringing together core material of that work with the results of recent investigations in order to present the evolution of society as an integrated and continuous story leading right up to the present time. A story of human action driven by our beliefs, desires, and an ideology arising out of our ability to transform and exploit our environment through the development and application of technology. The distinguishing feature of the work is the treatment of society as an information-processing system and applying the system methodology for handling complexity, as it is applied, e.g., in engineering. This focus on information is particularly pertinent in the current circumstances, where the world has arrived at a critical point in its history through the conjunction of a number of issues that appear to be spiralling out of control: Global warming and the associated climate change, the destruction of our environment through such processes as land clearing and industrialisation with associated loss of biodiversity, the rapidly increasing visibility of the inequality in the quality of life with associated tensions, and above all, the determination of the US-led Western alliance to cling to its hegemonial role, apparently at all cost. With the sophistication and proliferation of nuclear weapons, the latter has the potential to bring on the end of civilisation as we know it. The resolution of any of these issues depends on the information available to all parties involved, and hence, the availability and quality of information is seen as the crucial and overarching issue of the present time. A number of aspects of this issue, including the role of education, economic inequality, and the control of the media, are treated in some detail, and proposals for some small steps in the right direction are put forward.

The increase in fake news, the growing influence on elections, increasing false reports and targeted disinformation campaigns are not least a consequence of advancing digitalisation. Information technology is needed to put a stop to these undesirable developments. With intelligent algorithms and refined data analysis, fakes must be detected more quickly in the future and their spread prevented. However, in order to meaningfully recognize and filter fakes by means of artificial intelligence, it must be possible to distinguish fakes from facts, facts from fictions, and fictions from fakes. This book therefore also asks questions about the distinctions of fake, factual and fictional. The underlying theories of truth are discussed, and practical-technical ways of differentiating truth from falsity are outlined. By taking into account the fictional as well as the assumption that information-technical advancements can benefit from humanities knowledge, the authors hope that content-related, technical and methodological challenges of the present and future can be met.

This book redefines the essence of the information society and the digital economy, offering a new approach to their management and organization based on big data. The novelty of the new approach is that it ensures the use of the advanced technological capabilities of the Fourth Industrial Revolution to accelerate socio-economic development. The success of the new approach is based on progressive social institutions and advanced big data technology. Theoretical issues, methodological developments, and the author’s applied recommendations are consistently presented in forty chapters distributed in five sections. The book contains cases that reveal the practical experience of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). The intended readership of the book is scientists. The book is interesting and useful for them because it presents an innovative model of information society and digital economy development driven by big data. .

The beginning of the twenty-first century will be remembered, Friedman argues, not for military conflicts or political events, but for a whole new age of globalization a flattening' of the world. The explosion of advanced technologies now means that suddenly knowledge pools and resources have connected all over the planet, levelling the playing field as never before, so that each of us is potentially an equal and competitor of the other. The rules of the game have changed forever but does this death of distance', which requires us all to run faster in order to stay in the same place, mean the world has got too small and too flat too fast for us to adjust! Friedman brilliantly demystifies the exciting, often bewildering, global scene unfolding before our eyes, one which we sense but barely yet understand. "The World is Flat" is the most timely and essential update on globalization, its successes and its discontents, powerfully illuminated by a world-class writer.

"Hij is een origineel schrijver en denker en een geweldig stilist, met niet zelden een fijnzinnig gevoel voor humor. Hij maakt nieuwsgierig, zet aan tot denken en is kritisch op een zeer unieke manier." Zo beschreef de jury van de Heldringprijs 2018 het werk van Maxim Februari, schrijver van romans, verhalen, essays en columns waarin de grote thema's van deze tijd erudiet worden besproken, met oog voor de eigenaardigheden van het dagelijks leven. In 'De onbetrouwbare verteller' werpt Februari nieuw licht op zijn oude overtuigingen. Zijn kerngedachte is dat je de complexiteit van het bestaan niet kunt samenvatten in modellen en rationalisaties. Je kunt proberen greep te krijgen op de wereld door te praten en te schrijven, maar altijd ontgaat je de essentie. Nu, in deze nieuwe eeuw, wordt de woordcultuur vervangen door een rekencultuur. Die claimt het bestaan wel volledig te begrijpen en zelfs te kunnen voorspellen. Maar dat is bluf. 'De onbetrouwbare verteller' is een selectie eerder verschenen essays, columns en lezingen. Plus een kort verhaal, 'Razernij', waarin het psychologische portret wordt geschetst van een jongeman die onverwacht iets niet wil.

Nu Twitter en Facebook hoogtij vieren en e-mail en chat communicatietoppers zijn, zoekt het sociaal werk hoe onlinehulp kan worden ingezet. Want niet alle smileys lachen. Cliënten surfen massaal naar mogelijkheden. Vaak anoniem worden snel en krachtig hulpkreten verwoord. Dankzij de afstand en met enkel tekens op een scherm wordt nabijheid en ondersteuning gezocht. Die afstand zorgt voor mogelijkheden maar ook voor twijfel, onmacht en aarzeling bij de hulpverleners.Onlinehulpverleners, coördinatoren, onderzoekers en docenten van het Steunpunt Algemeen Welzijnswerk (SAW), het OnlineHulpUitwisselingsPlatform (OHUP) en de Arteveldehogeschool (Opleiding sociaal werk), bundelen in dit boek hun knowhow. De auteurs behandelen alle e-hulpvormen en focussen specifiek op chathulp. Dankzij de ervaring in het OHUP is de voorbije jaren daarrond immers de grootste knowhow ontwikkeld.Welke onlinehulpvormen worden aangeboden? Hoe verhoudt onlinehulp zich ten aanzien van een ander hulpaanbod? Welke doelgroep wordt met onlinehulp bereikt? Wat zijn voordelen van onlinehulp? Welke combinatie van hulp- en dienstverlening wordt mogelijk? Wat zijn de grenzen van onlinehulp? Welke competenties vergt onlinehulp? En hoe wordt onlinehulp geïmplementeerd?

Nos sociétés occidentales ont déjà vécu deux révolutions : le passage de l'oral à l'écrit, puis de l'écrit à l'imprimé. Comme chacune des précédentes, la troisième, tout aussi décisive, s'accompagne de mutations politiques, sociales et cognitives. Ce sont des périodes de crises. De l'essor des nouvelles technologies, un nouvel humain est né : Michel Serres le baptise "Petite Poucette". Petite Poucette va devoir réinventer une manière de vivre ensemble, des institutions, une manière d'être et de connaître...
