The transformation in culture, driven by digital technology and the development of media, information, and communication systems, represents one of the most significant challenges of contemporary societies. Understanding these profound changes and their impacts becomes part of the everyday life of communication professionals and citizens in general. In this context, what challenges, risks and opportunities arise? What new public spaces for interaction and socialization are being fostered? Through a transdisciplinary approach, this special issue aims to reflect on the impact of new technologies in a society based on the abundance of information and data that coexists with the potential of rupture and instability, with a deep and widespread crisis of confidence as a result.
