Настоящая статья посвящена исследованию генезиса и содержания социофилософского термина «общество знания» с опорой на ключевые программные документы ЮНЕСКО (доклады 2005 и 2009 гг.). Анализируется, в первую очередь, соотношение понятий «общество знания», «информационное общество» и «посткапитализм» («постиндустриальное общество») на основе работ классических (1960-1990 гг.) и современных исследователей данного вопроса. Кроме того, в статье проанализированы основные сферы «общества знания» (экономика, образование, культура и право), что позволяет путем синтеза доклада ЮНЕСКО и основных научных трудов в данной области выстроить целостную концепцию «общества знания». This article is devoted to the study of the genesis and content of the socio-philosophical term «knowledge society» based on the key UNESCO policy documents (Reports of 2005 and 2009). The author analyzes, first of all, the correlation of the concepts of «knowledge society», «information society» and «post-capitalism» (post-industrial society) on the basis of the works of classical (1960-1990s) and contemporary researchers of this issue. In addition, the article examines the main areas of the «knowledge society» (economy, education, culture and law), thus proposing on the basis of the UNESCO Report and the main scholarly works in this area comprehensive approach to building a platform of the «knowledge society».

The ‘Digital economy’ is sometimes used synonymously with ‘information society’, which emerged back in the 1960s to describe a futuristic society that is highly dependent on information (Bridges.org, 2001; Computer Systems Policy Projects, 2000). Martin (1997:87) further associates the concept with ‘information economics’ by defining it as a society in which there is a growing rate in the production, distribution and use of information. The ‘Digital economy’, as term and concept, has been used in this book in keeping with ‘information society’ as espoused by Schienstock et al. (1999), who view it from an interdisciplinary perspective to describe: An information economy;A post-industrial society; The end of the industrial labour society; A knowledge society; An ‘informatized’ industrial society; and A learning society.

Abstract Paradigmatic changes in education arise as a result of the emergence of a fundamentally new reality in society. Society has predicted this new reality through the concepts of post-industrial society, information society, knowledge society. The basis of this new reality is the development of information technologies (IT). These transformations of reality are taking place so rapidly that the institute of education has not had the time to realign itself in this new space and has been late in its development of new breakthroughs in the field of artificial intelligence. The purpose of the study is to show the fundamental paradigmatic differences between classical education and smart education, and to build a bridge of dialogue between these two paradigms.

In modern information and IT society, creativity is elevated to a pedestal as a condition for market success, but also survival. In other words, in post-industrial production, or the entire economy, and certainly media companies, which of course operate according to market principles and are based on information, creativity is the most wanted commodity. In the modern knowledge society, there has been a strong affirmation of the phenomenon of cultural, that is, creative industries that have great importance for the economic, social, political and general development of society. At the same time, changes in the economic, technological and cultural spheres have strongly influenced changes in the media, as an important creative industry. This means that media products (information, videos, pics) and the media are industry, not only because of the rating criteria which dictate the direction of business but also because it is about mass production and consumers. Creativity is an important strategic resource for increasing competitiveness in a knowledge-based economy. However, media policy does not encourage the systematic promotion of creativity. Consumerist entertainment industry suppresses and marginalizes authentic, creative cultural practices, replacing them with pseudo-cultural contests. The integration of theoretical knowledge and education into the Serbian media sphere is practically at the zero points with recurrences that seriously undermine the overall development, application of knowledge, modern technological achievements, and the affirmation of democracy and freedom as the basic precondition for the overall prosperity of society.

This chapter presents a perspective of a post-industrial society, through the development of the information society and its deployment, focusing on the possibilities of a service predominant society. The most important point of this exercise is that this approach did not happen as expected in form or time. In the past, the ICT tools were restricted to centers of competence or in organizations. Nowadays, their increasingly presence in individual lives, as well as in their human relationships, is changing social and commercial relations, the meaning of work and political participation of people in a compulsory way, unlike what had happened at the turn of agricultural to industrial Eras. New possibilities happen in a rapid manner in a society based on wealth concentration, when there is association of ICTs with the restlessness of social movements or collective protests demanding better living conditions of minority communities. The increasing information flows have led to the desire of knowledge. However, this search for the social welfare achievements has occurred in a superficial manner, leading to anxiety and depression of common and deprived citizens. A new Citizenship or, better defined, e-Citizenship emerges between their aspirations. Based on facts and observations of recent research on the impacts of ICTs in the last ten years, the approach of a community service changes the daily lives of individuals, despite its acceptance or perception, the presence of virtual media, the growing media innovation and agricultural, industrial and operational processes, as well as the claimed social movements.

Dominant Phase

Unlike the decisive occupations which facilitated the unambiguous naming of the agricultural and industrial societies, the present one which is tagged with an array of groupings—Post-Industrial, Service, Knowledge, Post-modern, Wired/Networked, Artificial, so on and so forth—can hardly ever be viewed from the perspective of a single occupation. With technology in the forefront working as the driver of information and knowledge, it supports and causes the rampant changes in the provinces of economy, occupation, spatial relations, and culture. And, together they signify the arrival of the ‘Information Society'. The obvious shift of a considerable population from the landed labour to industrial labour to knowledge workers marks the transitional phase of the society from agriculture to manufacturing to knowledge society. Hence, this chapter proposes that the dominant phase of a society is not to be visualised as an independent system that is divorced from the other two, but to be understood as an extension of its past.

Policy Problems

This chapter provides an analysis of party system attention to education based on the issue incentive model. The analysis shows that large, mainstream parties’ incentives are the key factor in explaining the dynamics of party system attention to education. However, compared to the three issues analysed before, problem characteristics rather than coalition considerations and issue ownership shape the incentives of large, mainstream parties. The fact that education is an obtrusive valence issue relevant to more or less the whole population implies that it is an issue that large, mainstream parties cannot ignore if public debates about policy problems emerge. The increased focus on education and human capital in the knowledge society has thus led to an increased focus on education. This focus has clearly been most pronounced in countries where it has materialized in a debate about the quality of primary schools. In Denmark, and later on also in Sweden, this debate came as a reaction to what was seen as disappointing PISA scores. In the UK, the PISA scores played a limited role in the debate about primary schools.

Abstract The near future, but also the farther future, in the knowledge society, will belong to the intelligent knowledge-based organizations that, in order to be sustainable, make efficient use of their available intellectual capital. This will play an active and determining role in any kind of organization, including the military ones. The authors’ intention is that, by using the power of the scientific arguments, to identify the main theoretical approaches of the concepts of knowledge-based organization and intellectual capital, to highlight their role in the knowledge era and to provide solutions for them to become realities in the Romanian economic and military environments.
