Information Technology 2.0, the Foundation of Society 5.0

Society 5.0 has created a new form of data: that of commands, which have no other use than the fact that they make it possible to control the elements of society 5.0. Primitive technologies remain at the heart of society 5.0. The notion of schema is one of the fundamental points of the construction of society 5.0. This chapter describes that information technologies are the foundation of society 5.0 which has led to a triple phenomenon characterized by more freedom, more control and the importance of communities. People can perceive the importance of the digital world in the search for freedom and the disappearance of boundaries, barriers and borders. One of the important contributions of existentialism, a characteristic of Jean‐Paul Sartre's thought, is defined by the principle of human freedom. Digital men gather spontaneously in digital communities, which represent one element of the situation in Sartre's sense.
