In the article considers aspects of the problem of the formation of the new information society. The systematization of the main approaches to the definition of “information society” is showed: technological, economic,  professional, spatial (network), cultural, political. The notion of "information society" is defined as a global society shaped by the intensive development of information and communication technologies, in which the main condition for the well-being of each person and each state is the knowledge gained through unhindered access to information and the ability to work with it, and the exchange of information is not will have neither temporal, spatial and political boundaries. Information policy is implemented on two levels – the state (national) and international. Each national state establishes a national information policy independently, depending on its own socio-economic, political and cultural conditions. The main directions of the national information policy are indicated. The peculiarities of the construction of the state information policy in Ukraine are noted. The state contributes to the development of the information society by creating an acceptable legislative field for the development of information and communication technologies. First of all, it is the Constitution and laws of Ukraine, presidential decrees and government programs and decrees, regulations and orders of ministries and departments, decisions and programs of central and local governments. In the context of European integration of Ukraine, the problem of studying the information society formation experience in the member states of the European Union, as well as the implementation of the EU legal  acts  norms  in  the information  legislation  of Ukraine is  actualized. The list of strategic development priorities of Ukraine includes the rights protection, freedoms and security of citizens in the information sphere, the refusal of total information control ideas and the economy innovative branches development, in particular the domestic industry of information technologies, services provision and production of software products.

Information And Communication

In the modern world, the information society is developing rapidly. According to most researchers, it has the following fundamental features: the growth of information activity of all members of society, the transformation of the information industry into a dynamic sphere of its operation, the penetration of information and communication technologies in the life of each individual, and, thanks to widespread network structures, change all models of social organization and cooperation. In the information society, mass media technologies play a crucial role in people's lives, especially in the processes of socialization, their participation in public life. Newspapers, radio and television largely become tools of state information policy or open propaganda, the existence of algorithmic corporations and their independence from direct state regulation is supported by the activity and quality of interaction of users themselves. Many states pursue an active state information policy aimed at strengthening the rules of conduct in the virtual public sphere, but the public space in these conditions has the opportunity to maintain its critical potential and debatable nature, even in conditions of state manipulation.

The article attempts to carry out procedural and actor analysis of certain trends in the development of the information society. There is a qualitative change in the ratio and interaction of different sections of political life. The direct proportional dependence of the growth of the intellectual resource on the information and network global space through communicative information processes, which stimulates the principles and practices of sustainable development, and ideally leads to the well-being and security of the individual, society and the State, is stressed. It is justified that devaluation, correction of classical and modern models ofdemocracy, as well as creation of new ones, are caused by modern processes: confrontation in geopolitical space, global informatization, development of infocommunication, social evolution and transformation of politics in general. It is concluded that information and communication technologies have stimulated the emergence of new forms of observation, and therefore new forms of power, replacing traditional organizations of collective action with modern actors of the political process.

Role Of Information

AbstractSeveral decades of research have addressed the role of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in industrial-organizational (I-O) psychology. However, segmented research streams with myriad terminologies run the risk of construct proliferation and lack an integrated theoretical justification of the contributions of ICT concepts. Therefore, by identifying important trends and reflecting on key constructs, findings, and theories, our review seeks to determine whether a compelling case can be made for the uniqueness of ICT-related concepts in studying employee and performance in I-O psychology. Two major themes emerge from our review of the ICT literature: (a) a technology behavior perspective and (b) a technology experience perspective. The technology behavior perspective with three subcategories (the “where” of work design, the “when” of work extension, and the “what” of work inattention) explores how individual technology use can be informative for predicting employee well-being and performance. The technology experience perspective theme with two subcategories (the “how” of ICT appraisals and “why” of motives) emphasizes unique psychological (as opposed to behavioral) experiences arising from the technological work context. Based on this review, we outline key challenges of current ICT research perspectives and opportunities for further enhancing our understanding of technological implications for individual workers and organizations.

The arrival of information and communication technologies is nothing new. The number of people using these technologies and moving in cyberspace is growing, and therefore it is an important role of the state to respond sufficiently to such developments. A fundamental role of the state is to create a stable security system consisting of complex legislation as well as creation of a legislative environment capable of responding flexibly to the growing number of diverse incidents in cyberspace. Sufficient legal regulation consisting of unambiguous determination of competencies and tasks of individual subjects represents the basic pillar for the creation of a stable security system. The role of the state is also to maintain existing and create new partnerships with organizations that are able to provide relevant information and knowledge in the field of cyber security.

The availability of breastfeeding support resources, including those provided by Baby-Friendly Hospitals, International Board Certified Lactation Consultants, breastfeeding counselors and educators, and volunteer-based mother-to-mother support organizations, such as La Leche League, are critically important for influencing breastfeeding initiation and continuation for the mother-child dyad. In addition, the emergence of community support options via information and communication technologies such as Skype and Facetime, social media (e.g., Facebook), and telelactation providers are providing mothers with a new range of support options that can help bridge geographic barriers to traditional community support. However, telelactation services that use information and communication technologies to connect breastfeeding mothers to remotely located breastfeeding experts require reliable, affordable, high-quality broadband connections to facilitate interaction between mothers and their support resources. The purpose of this paper is to explore the complex spatial landscape of virtual and face-to-face breastfeeding support options for mothers in the state of Ohio (U.S.), identifying barriers to support. Using a range of spatial and network analytics, the results suggest that a divide is emerging. While urban areas in Ohio benefit from both a density of face-to-face breastfeeding support resources and robust broadband options for engaging in telelactation, many rural areas of the state are lacking access to both. Policy implications and several potential strategies for mitigating these inequities are discussed.
