More about the book

Focusing on the impact of new Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) on political engagement, the book explores the relationship between technology and civic trust in Sokodé, Togo, from 2015 to 2020. It challenges the prevailing belief that ICT fosters democratization, revealing how increased access to mobile phones has amplified existing mistrust within the community. By examining these dynamics, the author highlights the complexities of social interaction under duress and the nuanced effects of technology on civic life.
