The Covid19 pandemic has disturbed the Moroccan economy and forced companies to reorganize work. The boundaries between work-life and personal life have blurred. The pandemic has intensified the challenges women were facing in business. Working women who are busy with family responsibilities always have an extra workload. Today, sanitary measures, the closure of schools and childcare systems, the saturation of hospitals have placed increased demands on women to support their families. We have interviewed human resources managers and executives from two Moroccan companies to uncover the status of their women's talent pipeline within these circumstances and understand the impact of the pandemic on the women's “employee experience”. The ultimate objective of this article is to explore and analyze the impact of the pandemic on the women's “Employee Experience” in these two Moroccan companies

Anthropologies, whether local or fundamental, suffer from problems of fragmentation or foundation that make it difficult for them to propose answers concerning the origins of technique and semiotics, even though both are essential markers of the differences between Homo and all other animals. In an attempt to provide answers, this article proposes to adopt an anthropogenic approach on the « long time » and to look at the way in which Homo has been constituted, darwinianally, as a techno-semiotic animal, over the last two million years. The choice of the « long time » of course calls for referentials that allow us to free ourselves from particular periods, civilisations and situations. Thus, for example, in this article, we have been interested in the geometry (topology) of Homo's body which, unlike that of other animals, is particularly segmenting, tranversalizing and panoplic. These three topological characteristics of Homo's body would have made him particularly apt to become a technical animal, at least if we consider that technique begins with instruments, already known to animals, but that later Homo would have articulated them into panoplies and protocols, unknown to animals. Now organised in 'toolboxes', these instruments would have become 'tools' and the starting point of technique. In a similar way, the segmentarising body of Homo would also have been conducive to the emergence of the sign, defined anthropogenically as a segment of the Universe which, through various links, thematises other segments of the Universe, in a pure manner, without operational charges. A finger, a thematizing segment, pointing to an object, a thematized segment, is already a sign. Such an anthropogenic approach, over the long time, apparently makes it possible to propose common origins for technique and semiotics, here for example on the basis of notions such as the segment, the panoply, and the protocol, which are valid over several million years. But, beyond the conclusions of this article, it is probably the choice of referentials independent of periods, civilisations and particular situations that is most likely to stimulate all researchers interested in the human sciences and Homo's achievements in all fields. Most of this article is inspired by the book ANTHROPOGENY, by the philosopher Henri VAN LIER (1921 - 2009), and almost all of his texts on general anthropogeny and local anthropogenies are available on the website http://www.anthropogenie.com/

The purpose of this article is to consturct the problematics of the semiotics of Covid-19. There are three main dimensions of this inquiry which are agentivity, narrativity, temporality. In the first section, the author attempted to apprehend 6 semiotic features of the pandemic which are ethical, political, axiological, ontological, epistemological, methodological. In the second section, some semiotic isotopies of the narrative discursivity of the Covid-19 are suggested. In terms of the temporality, the non-linearity is underlined. In conclusion, this work insisted on the necessity of constructing the concept of deep narrativity and the infinite responsibility of the human beings.

May 2020 marked the emergence of the so-called “Itaewon Corona Crisis”. The Korean government and local municipalities pursued a quick and drastic response, and “the COVID-19 epidemiological investigation support system” became the center of COVID-19 crisis governance in Korea. This has led to a debate over whether to prioritize community safety or privacy and human rights protection. This essay focuses on not only the social expansion of the surveillance system, but also the need to explore how dependent Korean society is on a ‘technological fix' and what we gain and lose from it. Through the case of the “Itaewon Corona Crisis”, we attempt to answer the question of why citizens easily accept surveillance technology in crisis and why surveillance systems are rapidly spreading in society. As for the former, concepts such as technological fix and risk perception are analyzed, and as for the latter, the role and performance of “the COVID-19 epidemiological investigation support system” as a surveillance system are highlighted.

In Korea, the movement disclosure system (disclosure of the movement path of confirmed patients with infectious diseases) has been the core of quarantine measures from the beginning of the pandemic. The system is based on the Infected Disease Control and Prevention Act, Article 34-2. According to the act, the head of the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the mayor, and the district heads are required to disclose information such as the route and means of transportation of infectious disease patients to the public. A criticism has been raised that the movement disclosure system violates the individual right to privacy and personal dignity. This study introduces constitutional issues surrounding the substantive and procedural legitimacy of the movement disclosure system and shows the results of a survey on the perception of ordinary citizens on these issues. On average, 1,000 respondents approve the legitimacy of the movement disclosure system. Respondents' average evaluation is that the movement disclosure system has not only substantive constitutional legitimacy but also procedural democratic legitimacy. This tendency is the same regardless of the respondents' gender, age, and political orientation. Additionally, respondents generally show that if the movement disclosure policy has secured procedural democracy, it can be accepted in the emergent situation of the pandemic, even if it limits basic rights. From the survey, it might be inferred that communication and cooperation with civil society are essential in preparing policies even in emergencies, and that policies prepared through such democratic governance are highly acceptable.

Public evaluation of national policy acts as an important factor in maintaining or replacing the government in the upcoming election. The same is true of scientific policy evaluations, including high-tech and medical care. In the face of the COVID-19 crisis, the national evaluation of “K-Quarantine” in the medical science field can also serve as an important variable in the operation of the democratic system. 1) How do sovereign citizens evaluate “K-Quarantine”? 2) How much influence does the ‘political trust' factor have in the scientific communication of COVID-19 and ‘K-Quarantine' evaluation? 1,000 citizens participated in an internet survey and the results were analyzed. The mean score of “K-Quarantine Evaluation” was 5.595 out of 10, indicating that the public holds a slightly positive view on “K-Quarantine”. Research Hypothesis 1 states that “The more people support Moon Jae's government, the more positively they will evaluate ‘K-Quarantine'”. After conducting regression analysis on the survey result, it was found that the evaluation of “K-Quarantine” also increased as the “political trust” of “Moon Jae in government support” increased. Research hypothesis 1 was supported by the survey. Research Hypothesis 2 states that “support for Moon Jae's government” will have a greater influence on the “K-Quarantine evaluation”, which is more controversial than those with less debates in the public sphere such as “tracking the path of confirmed patients”. Four less controversial dependent variables were “vaccine stability”, “tracking the path of confirmed patients”, “QR certification”, and “smart city surveillance society” Regression analysis conducted on the data showed that the “political trust” variable of “support for Moon Jae's government” had greater influence on “K-Quarantine evaluation” than the other four dependent variables. Research hypothesis 2 was also supported. The results were consistent with the effect of national gathering that the people support the government and its leaders in times of national crisis. As previous studies have shown, the “political trust” factor played a more important role in controversial issues. Even in issues regarding the communication of science and technology that require strict knowledge and information, the ‘political trust' factor played an important role.

According to the government's promotion of the Covid-19 vaccination policy, it may have relevance to the public's perception of the reliability and fairness of the government's epidemic prevention policy. This study analyzed how the public trust in the government's policies and the fairness of the government's quarantine policy decisions change depending on the public satisfaction with the government's Covid-19 quarantine policy. The purpose of this study is to show whether the government's promotion of its quarantine policy affects the reliability of its policies and public perceptions of the fairness of its policy decisions. This study used the ‘Survey on public perceptions using the scientific culture and media of the Fourth Industrial Revolution' as the main analysis data. The survey targeted 1,000 panels nationwide who agreed in advance out of 1.3 million panels secured by Embrain. An Internet survey with 1,000 samples was conducted. As a result of performing multinomial logistic regression analysis with policy reliability and fairness as the dependent variables, it was found that the higher the public's satisfaction with the government's promotion of its Covid-19 vaccination policy, the higher the government's trust in the quarantine measures. Regardless of the demographic characteristics, it was confirmed that when public satisfaction with the government's vaccination policy was high, the reliability of the government's measures also turned out to be high. Second, it was found that the higher the level of public satisfaction with the media's publicizing of the Covid-19 vaccination policy carried out by the government, the fairer the government's epidemic prevention policy decisions. However, although the level of public satisfaction with policy promotion was high, many respondents held the opinion that the government's early message about easing quarantine caused the fourth wave of the pandemic. The results of this study imply that the government's promotion of Covid-19 quarantine policies should be more transparent in order to improve the credibility and fairness of its public policies, and that quarantine policy messages should be carefully announced.

Due to the corona pandemic, interest in technology-based education such as AI-based education and edutech is in the spotlight, and the operation of a curriculum that meets the educational goals of learners is emerging as the key. In particular, Korea has been nurturing professional manpower through the operation of the Graduate School of Education from 2020 to nurture professional teachers for AI-using education. In this study, a survey on perceptions of AI-using education (curriculum) and education policy necessary to revive interest in AI education was conducted for 500 men and 500 women. They consist of 200 people each for each age group (20s to 60s). First, as an advantage of AI-based education, it was found that there is a high expectation for the possibility of individualized education using AI. I was able to confirm that it was recognized as Second, as a disadvantage of AI-using education, it was confirmed that both men and women expressed “concerns about the emergence of AI technology that replaces teachers” Disadvantages (concerns) of AI-using education by age group include “concerns about the emergence of AI technology instead of teachers”, “distrust of AI-based learner-tailored learning”, and “personal information leakage for AI-based careers (advancement)” has been displayed It can be seen that more attention and preparation are needed for the shortcomings of AI-based education. Lastly, in the survey on the perception of education (curriculum) and education policy required to conduct AI-using education, it was found that 1 to 8 items agreed with the detailed elements necessary for AI-using education. Moreover, the 60s actively expressed their opinions about ethics education, a dedicated teacher training system, new textbooks and appropriate teaching methods. Through this, it was confirmed that the higher the age group, the more concerns and rejection of AI-using education, and the need to establish a device for a safer educational environment, and the need for education (curriculum) and education policy for this purpose were confirmed. This study will be able to form a consensus on the need for education using AI, which is necessary in the recent post-corona era, and contribute to the design and substantiation of specific education (curriculum) and education policy necessary to specifically prepare AI-using education.

Since the 1990s, science and technology studies (STS) has suggested a “public turn” to nudge science toward a more diversified set of questions. According to STS, we consider scientific knowledge socially and culturally conditioned. Our studies inform us that different societies define knowledge differently, and sometimes citizens need to define scientific knowledge with or against the authorities. The term “citizen science” fuses citizens with science rather than separating the two. It refers to scientific work involving citizens. Indeed, citizens may participate in various scientific activities, such as raising questions, funding, experimenting, discussing, and writing papers. Using two nationwide surveys conducted in South Korea in 2020 and 2021, we analyze current citizen participation in scientific work and we discuss the possibility of citizen engagement in science and technology culture. We also present in-depth interview data to document the current state of citizen science to supplement the survey results. Our findings show that we must re-explore the relationship between the influence of the social environment and science more broadly.
