The article presents a comparative study of the classical views of management in the conditions of intensification of the processes of digitalization and construction of the "digital" model of the world. The conclusion is made about a radical change of the management paradigm and depersonalization of highly effective processes of management of various focus groups by formalized algorithmized commands of artificial intelligence. In the conditions of intensification of the processes of digitalization and use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the daily life of consumers of services and different groups of users, the problems of interactions between the control and managed subsystems are of priority importance, since they directly actually affect not only all behavioral characteristics of the individual in the digital economic way, but also in the existing social way. The resonant statement of our President at the St. Petersburg forum that the leader in the development of AI can become the ruler of the world testifies to the special importance of the problem of governance in the context of the development of post-industrial society and the formation of the information environment of the digital society.

In a post-industrial society, social processes are dynamic, complex, and diverse. Social interaction management is turning into a competency in its own right. This competency is shaped by many factors, which are affected by the institutional setup as well as the individual features and localisation of the subject and object of management. Investigating and developing the managerial competencies that are necessary for the successful operation of society is a major trend in contemporary science. Studies in the area require an interdisciplinary approach. The aim of this research is to identify the managerial competencies that are crucial for the adequate and stable functioning of regional administration systems. An analysis of the components of managerial competencies and their factors is carried out to identify their status in the centre of an exclave region (Kaliningrad) and in Moscow. The study draws on the authors’ frame-based methodology (Rospatent No. 2012660535), which makes it possible to obtain objective empirical information on competency factors and their types. Sought-after competencies and their indicative structures were identified for each region. The findings are not only of theoretical importance but are well adapted for practical purposes, particularly, for advanced training of managers and teaching related university disciplines.

This chapter discusses the relationship between South Asian immigration and labor in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. It analyzes experiences of two Indian Americans in Muncie, Indiana, one of whom is a doctor and other of whom is the spouse of a doctor. It situates their stories within the larger context of the deindustrialization of Muncie and the rise of a post-industrial society. It uses discourse analysis to describe how racial prejudice, social marginalization, and religious difference have affected the lives of immigrant working professionals and are embedded in the stories of daily life that the individuals share.

Using machine learning and artificial intelligence, Uber has been disrupting the world taxi industry. However, the Uber algorithmic apparatus managed to perfectionize the scalable decentralized tracking and surveillance of mobile living bodies. This article examines the Uber surveillance machinery and discusses the determinants of its algorithmically powered ‘all-seeing power’. The latter is being figured as an Algopticon that reinvents Bentham’s panopticon in the era of the platform economy.

The article discusses theoretical background and empirical premises for supplementing the goals of education with orientation to individual actor as the “assemblage point” of the educational result in a constantly changing reality. The article has an interdisciplinary modus, its theoretical basis is the D. Bell’s concepts of the post-industrial society, the “liquid modernity” of Z. Bauman and the idea of C.S. Dweck about the ability of personality’s sets “plants for growth” or “for granted” to influence intellect and achievement of goals. The work proceeds from the understanding of the fact that the “spreading” state of education is due to the specifics of the transition to some post-state of the society that is not yet clear. It is characterized by the fundamental ambiguity of circumstances and tendencies when centralized management of complex systems is difficult or erroneous, and this makes it necessary to reduce the level of decision making to self-organizing local social forms, giving them greater autonomy, in this case – to an individual and his autonomy. However, in our culture we have a lack of confidence to the individual and his ability to make wise choices, as well as, wittingly or unwittingly, reduce the setting for growth and primacy. But if students are offered well-organized research practices instead of imitations of scientific work, then they form the true key competencies necessary for modern society – a willingness to be in search, continuously learn and create new solutions for new tasks, contribute to the development of good conceptual language, cooperation in group work, courage in posing problems, readiness to work with complex problems. The article presents a kind of a case analysis of such work. The article also poses the problem of exploiting the cognitive status and well-being of teachers in super-formalized labor practices.

A transition from the industrial to the post-industrial phase of the development of civilization takes place currently. In the traditional phase of development (until the twentieth century), the researchers and thinkers focus was on the nature study. In the industrial times (XX century) - the machines world was comprehended and developed. The most important result of this period was the creation of computers. Now the world is entering to the post-industrial phase, where the focus is on the person. This is changing applied mathematics, computer reality. There is a bifurcation in which a significant part of applied mathematics is becoming an industry. A number of promising innovative projects draw attention in this context. There is a transition from "continuous" to "discrete" mathematics, largely associated with the development of cryptography. Another feature of the moment is the neural network revolution in machine learning, which gave a new powerful impetus to the artificial intelligence (AI) development progress. It led to the widespread use of devices and systems that solve "intelligent" problems at the human level and above. The possibilities for solving very complex problems are limited by means that contradict the established views that thinking and reason are based on the soul, which has limitless possibilities. The strong AI (general AI, AGI) creating problem is not in building devices with magical capabilities, but in creating limited systems that can learn to solve many of the problems available. An important AGI property should be cooperation with people, taking into account civilizational norms. This property has not only a technical side, it depends on social relations. Sustainable development requires an agency approach to AGI. Modern applied mathematics has faced fundamental difficulties in complex problems. Multiple increases in the performance of computing systems did not lead to breakthrough results. As new paradigms, "analog" computing systems working with the use of new principles are neural networks and quantum computers. It is shown that these approaches, at best, can help to solve the "past tasks", and not the "future tasks" associated with the post-industrial phase of the development of civilization. The domestic applied mathematics efforts should be used to solve the central problems of the post-industrial society development in Russia using interdisciplinary approaches. This can make it possible to return to the number of countries with advanced technologies in the most important modern production areas. The alternative directions of the science development related to the human capabilities expansion are considered. The key one is related to AI, which can change reality. The article pays special attention to alternative approaches to AI development.

The article considers an issue of the formation and embedding of the newest spaces (in particular, creative ones) into the urban landscape, the formation of which became both a consequence and a condition for the formation of a post-industrial society in the digital economy, which is actively discussed not only among foreign researchers, but also in the Russian humanitarian discourse. The emergence of such spaces updated the themes of using the creative potential of people in the formation or conversion of urban sites, revitalizing abandoned industrial areas, choosing a place to live, ways of spending the leisure time and much more. Creative spaces have become objects for the realization of human needs in the newest conditions of our time due to their key property – the use of the individual creativity of the site users. The article presents the results of a number of qualitative studies conducted from 2018 to 2020, including: content analysis “Creative space in Russian and Western practice”, expert interviews “Formation of creative spaces in modern Moscow through the eyes of experts”, and social mapping “Map of art-clusters of Moscow”, which made it possible to describe the hierarchy of creative spaces, the general algorithm for their formation, the conditions for the long-term existence of such clusters, as well as the peculiarities of their appearance on the map of Moscow.

The article explores the idea of social progress in the context of the history of human society. The author considers the concept of progress in interrelation with the three revolutions. The first revolution was an agrarian one, which established the dominant religious consciousness and dependence on the divine intervention. Accordingly, the idea of progress as opposed to the perfection of God was not dominant. The world of nature is born, develops, and dies. This approach prevailed for about seven thousand years: from the first civilizations to the XV - XVIII centuries. According to the Judeo-Christian tradition, after the fall, the world fell away from God. This understanding corresponds to the primordial approach and is also opposite to the idea of progress. In the Renaissance, the secularization of consciousness and culture begins. Culture and values are formed on the basis of religious Judeo-Christian values, but a man becomes the bearer and guarantor of these values. The ideas of humanism and worshipping of a human being as the main creator are reflected in philosophy, art, and painting. In accordance with this approach, the idea of progress is born. The idea of progress is fully formed and takes possession of the masses in the age of Enlightenment. During this period, the industrial revolution is taking place. In European culture, the primacy of rationality, machine labor and equality is asserted. But at the same time, the industrial revolution entailed many social crises that are still relevant today. The United States and Europe were gradually able to overcome the challenges of the industrial revolution and create a system of “capitalism with a human face”, while partially imposing their system on other countries where production is cheaper. Therefore, the problems of the so-called “wild capitalism” still take place in the third world countries. By the middle of the XX century, science became the leading factor in manufacturing. Society is changing from industrial to post-industrial. The article focuses on the problems and opportunities of the modern post-industrial society with all the accumulated baggage of the previous stages of development. Humanity has achieved great technological success, and the scientific and technological revolution has brought material benefits to society. But at the same time, the consumer society creates many problems. What is progress in the context of modern discourse? The answer to this question is the purpose of this article.

The content of the Ukrainian national idea in the era of transition from industrial to post-industrial(informational) type of society is revealed. It is demonstrated that in the transition to a post-industrial society, thenational idea as a product of an industrial society requires a significant transformation. In a post-industrial society,the national idea should be focused on the production of post-economic values and active social regulation, themaximum use of the creative (creative) potential of members of the national community, the formation of anew type of family and new forms of social partnership, the increasing role of knowledge (scientific and parascientific)and changes in the education system. It is determined that the national idea, taking into account theetymology of the components of this construct, acts as a key idea in understanding the nature of the nation andthe prospects for its development.It is determined that the national idea must be understood in the context of the special conditions of lifeof the people throughout its history. It reflects the deep level of national consciousness, advocates all forms ofreflection of the nation (person) over issues of the essence of the national community and the meaning of itsexistence. Throughout its history, Ukraine has sought to build its own state on a democratic, legal and socialbasis and, having gained independence in 1991, these value dominants were entrenched at the constitutionallevel. At the present stage of nation-building, the key direction in the formation of a national idea is to determinethe optimal model that should underpin state-building – ethno-cultural or civic.It is proved that the Ukrainian national idea, having passed the difficult historical path of aging and formation,today requires substantial modernization, adaptation to the realities of the transitional society, civilizational,geopolitical, economic challenges of the 21st century. The national idea should take into account the changesthat occur in the social and economic structure of society, and incorporate into the body of the nation-buildingstrategy those goals and ways to achieve them that actualize post-material values, pay attention to the needsof self-development and self-improvement of the individual. The formula of the Ukrainian national idea isproposed, which consists of strategic and operational-tactical components, designed for different time periods– short, medium and long term. The strategic components of the modern Ukrainian national idea include theslogans ‘Ukraine is a conciliar, European, decent state and a nation’, ‘Equality of all citizens before the law,freedom of life strategies, respect for the national and cultural traditions of the Ukrainian people and ethniccommunities living on its territory’, ‘Democracy in all spheres of public life, the embodiment of moral standardsin social relations’. The operational-tactical components of the modern Ukrainian national idea include theslogans ‘Knowledge, information, movement (action)’.
