Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The modern world is experiencing a rapid transformation due to the increasing use of digital technologies. These technologies are changing the way we live, work, communicate, and interact with others. This transformation is also affecting political processes and the way power is established and maintained. One of the main ways that digital technology is changing the world is through the way information is produced, shared, and consumed. The latest advancements in information and communication technologies are making it easier to communicate and share information quickly and easily. This, in turn, is changing the way political power is formed and legitimized. The more information is available online, through social media and other digital platforms, the more impact it has on people’s political views and actions. This information can motivate individuals and groups to participate in political events, but it also creates new opportunities for political manipulation. In the age of information overload, it is important for political leaders to be able to select, interpret, and share information effectively. This is because people often find it difficult to distinguish between reliable and unreliable information online. This study explores the changing nature of political leadership in the information age.
