An exploration from the perspective of human and social sciences and their game changer. The pandemic has imposed new rites, a new way of life mainly: at work, at school, in leisure and travel, and even in our most intimate social interactions with our friends, families, and loved ones. This colloquium aims at examining this new transdisciplinary theme. Odil Jacob. France Lafleur et al.
The pandemic has forced us to consider that since , we have entered a new era, that of repeated epidemics and pandemics. This new potentially permanent state, according to Gilles Lipovetsky, has had complex and multidimensional impacts that have led us, and arestill leading us, inevitably to different ways of seeing the world, thinking about it and acting within it France Lafleuret al. Indeed, the pandemic, by shaking up the rules of the social game, is also shaking up the ways of thinking and behaving.
At the same time, the crisis has stimulated innovation in a range of sectors, including education, tourism, and economy. In education, for example, we have seen the birth of innovative initiatives, which have enabled the continuation of teaching and training activities β on the radio, on television or elsewhere.
Distance learning formulas have been developed thanks to the rapid intervention of states and partners around the world determined to ensure educational continuity, in particular the Global Coalition for Education set up by UNESCO.
Seen from this approach, the crisis under study is indefinitely a game changer. It is an element that significantly changes the usual way of thinking or acting. Starting from this point, the argument of our colloquium already puts forward two main hypotheses. The second main hypothesis is that the existence of these "emergencies" is a striking proof of the resilience of Moroccan society or any other "healthy" society against any unexpected crisis.
