GEO-CIVILIZATIONAL CONFLICT: THE INTERSECTION OF CULTURAL IDENTITIES AND ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES IN SHAPING THE NEW WORLD ORDER
Nacer BOUKROU
Abstract
This research explores the emerging phenomenon of "geo-civilizational conflict" as an evolved conceptual framework that transcends traditional theories of geopolitics and civilizational clash. The study examines how non-traditional alliances are forming based on shared civilizational visions and technological paradigms rather than mere economic or military interests.
Through analysis of the dynamic interplay between cultural identity formation, technological sovereignty, and digital governance systems, this research identifies a fundamental shift in how power relations are structured in the 21st century. The paper argues that competing models of societal organization, embedded in technological infrastructures, are creating new fault lines in international relations that cannot be adequately explained by conventional geopolitical theories.
By developing a novel theoretical framework for understanding these complex intersections, this research contributes to anticipating future patterns of global competition and cooperation in an increasingly fragmented world order. Case studies of emerging non-traditional alignments provide empirical evidence for a new paradigm where civilizational values and technological ecosystems mutually reinforce each other to create distinct spheres of influence that transcend geographical boundaries
