Digital social networks in the current media space

The present study deals with digital social networks (DSN). Mainly the place they occupy in the space of current communicational exchanges their success in society and the ambivalence that emerges from their use and which leads to rivalries between quietude and anxiety. Specifically it plans to examine and analyze the level of rationality of the NSRs and the transformations observed and observable in the global society and in the particular case of Cameroon due to their use by different social actors. Globally we can say that the RSNs are positioned today as the most opportune spaces for communicational exchanges that bring the world''s populations closer and closer together. It remains to uncover the foundations of this privileged positioning whose contribution to the lives of populations in general and that of users in particular seems a priori ambivalent. Indeed it is probable that the increasingly frequent recourse to the RSN by the various categories of social actors confers them the merit to be considered as social discursive contents.
