Abstract
Our research studies the reconfiguration of intergenerational ties among Tunisian teenagers in the face of a patriarchal society that is becoming, thanks to the rise of digital technology, an increasingly horizontal society. The question that preoccupies us is to know in what way socio-numerical networks (SNN) favour or not the emergence of a new media space which could itself facilitate the evolution of social relationships in Tunisian society. To approach this question from the specific angle of communication, favouring a sociology of use approach, we start from the hypotheses according to which the practices of digital tools are part of a materialized social relationship that refers to a new form of connected sociability of users. It should also be noted that there have been new norms of intergenerational conduct on social networks since the Tunisian revolution of 2011. From a methodological point of view, our research is based on a qualitative approach supplemented by specialist literature on the subject.
