ABSTRACT
The second half of the 20th century saw the invention and introduction of stand-alone computers using digitalised technology that enabled the organisation and storage of large amounts of information. The investigation of the fourth industrial revolution continues at two levels. First, at the district level, a website is established where all staff can find or upload readings and other resources, and share ideas and insights. Second, each site has a small planning committee that develops a site- based program looking at the impact of the fourth industrial revolution. Work has been important not just as the basis for sustaining and building the standard of living of the society as a whole, but for individual financial security, mental and physical wellbeing, and meaning and self- identity. Of course, attempts to manipulate the population using propaganda techniques have long been a feature of politics, but the digital revolution has sped up the process.
