Shifting Paradigms of Being Human: Society, Mind, Culture and Technology in a Changing World

Abstract

Shifting Paradigms of Being Human: Society, Mind, Culture and Technology in a Changing World examines the evolving nature of human identity, experience, and social relationships in an era of rapid cultural and technological transformation. The volume brings together interdisciplinary perspectives on how emerging technologies, changing social structures, evolving cultural practices, and developments in human thought are reshaping contemporary understandings of what it means to be human. The book explores the complex interactions between individuals, society, technology, and culture, with particular attention to changing patterns of communication, identity, creativity, knowledge, and human behaviour. It encourages critical reflection on both the possibilities and challenges created by technological advancement and shifting social paradigms. By connecting insights from the humanities, social sciences, cultural studies, and technology, Shifting Paradigms of Being Human offers a multidimensional framework for understanding contemporary human experiences and the transformations shaping the future of society.
