This article examines the structuring of communication in the spaces of globalization imposed by the order of explicit and implicit interactions with the dynamics of the digital revolution. The objective is to understand the new dynamics of the relationship and culture in the new organized ecosystem. The space, the moment, the principle of enaction, the processes of the three directions of development of artificial intelligence and many other cultural processes are the fundamental references for exploring interactions in the modeling space of mediations. The analysis of the deployment of digital devices reveals a new order of communication and culture that reverses cultural diversities, as in the case of the African context explored. The common performance imposes a necessity of flexibility of the standards of governance of theses spaces.

Educational hub refers to centres of excellence in higher education and research whose aims are to provide high-quality education for both national and international students to enhance the competitiveness of the country. These educational hubs provide an opportunity for knowledge exchanges and innovation in local regions through education and training. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, rapid shifts were made towards online learning in education around the world. Although the lockdown is over, remote learning will likely play an increasingly prominent role in education. The adoption of scaled remote learning during the pandemic provided evidence of the importance of online learning. They offer an insight into global society, helping prepare students for an increasingly interconnected world by facilitating links between different regions. Educational hubs can be tied to distance learning and are successful in attracting international students when offering a combination of distance learning methods and innovative programs. This paper examines the phenomenon of educational hubs in higher education for international education through online learning with digital technology. New opportunities for online and distance learning within the definition of educational hubs are analyzed, and three online and blended learning models that reflect the development of educational hubs based on COVID-19 conditions of education are offered. In addition, the successful cases and experiences of distance learning hubs in China and Iran in recent years are described.

In this essay, we discuss housing policy in Nuuk (Greenland), which is characterised by disparity, undemocratic decision-making, and lack of open, frank discussion. Greenland has a culture of conflict avoidance and reluctance to accept criticism, due to its small population and its cultural traditions. Moreover, the city council's housing policy has to take both the affluent and the less well-off into consideration. The latter, however, find it harder to influence policy-making. At the Ilinniarfissuaq (Institute for Learning) in Nuuk, we want our future teachers to take part in the development of society and in public debates over social issues. They should in turn be able to teach their students to get involved and to take a stand in debates. But how can we help these future teachers develop a critical view of housing policy without feeling oppressed and powerless? We tried to solve this problem through a technical solution—a GIS program. This program forced our teacher trainees to take a position and express their opinions.

The Grim Reaper, one of the thanatic images of western iconography, has often been used in artistic and cinematographic creation. It has also been the subject of a humorous reinterpretation, which will be explored in this paper using contemporary examples (movie, cartoons and drawings available on the Internet). The analysis highlights scenographic and discursive strategies to create humorous effects (incongruity, aggressiveness, quid pro quo, etc.) that aim to humanize death by exploring the stakes and dilemmas that the Grim Reaper encounters in its existence and role.

The advent of microcomputing has signified major transformations in terms of the effectiveness and efficiency of bureaucratic processes. As data storage and processing capacities have continually increased, these changes have also triggered improvements in the quality of public services. More recently, however, such progress has generated some unexpected outcomes, not only causing disruption in the customary internal practices but also throwing into question the writing system and accompanying conventions upon which our bureaucracies have been established. The leading instrument in the conduct of government affairs, the document has gradually been shorn of its attributes and has, at the same time, been slow to achieve a new definition in the digital environment. The same observation applies to the rules and processes that are the very foundation of operations in formal organizations. This article discusses the issues surrounding the collapse of the writing system and how this trend affects the operations of our institutions and compels carrying out major, fundamental innovations if we wish to safeguard the long-term future of our democratic systems.

How were paper bastions added to the walls of academic citadels? By mapping the evolution of the coauthorship network in 180 management journals from 1991 to 2009, we identify an elite league of business schools that retained dominance despite the research community's significant growth. The elite universities maintain their prominence through a loop of reinforcement involving the peer review process and third-party ranking bodies, though the perceived quality of the papers published was declining as measured by the percentage of overall citations. Leading U.S. universities dominate top journal publications, while new local poles of management research among European and Asian universiteis emerged.
