Authors : Chiheb Adel . Fennour Nadjet .

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of social media on the Algerian family system, focusing on Jijel City. Using a qualitative approach and case study method, the researchers explore how social media affects traditions, digital interactions, and the gradual replacement of face-to-face interactions with the family. The study focuses on social media usage patterns, communication between family members, and the impact on daily customs and traditions. The study's significance lies in identifying the socio-cultural and relational changes in Algerian society due to the increasing use of social media. The results show that social media has various effects on the socio-cultural and relational nature of the Jijelian family structure.
