Cognitive Management in the Information Society Context

Contemporary knowledge is transforming to information and takes specific features in order to participate in a constant development, moving and converting to informational floods. I argue that in the new informational epistemology the relation between subject and object are changing. The character of Knowledge is interdisciplinary. The consequence of such tendency in modern science is accent varying from result of scientific discovery to the process. Now it is important to know how, in what way scientists extract scientific result. Knowledge is break up into informational flows, which “get tangled”, “flash” and “pulsate”. The cognitive management is presented in this paper as a tool for knowledge use in constantly changing informational floods. Administrative mechanism of knowledge management made accent on placing emphasis on procedural learning tools, adapts process of mastering by knowledge for conditions and requirements of a modern information age. New character of cognitive processes is caused by the new informative means which have appeared together with the Internet, e-mail and system of mass communication. They connected the world in uniform space

Trust as wellbeing factor

This paper discusses a role of trust in post-industrial society. I argue that a social theory of trust advanced and methodologically inconsistently. Trust is a key characteristic of developed human society, which is showing at two levels: individual and social (trust to public institutes and Government as a whole). In particular, trust is defined a progress. Success of self-actualization ones society depends on widespread element of culture – trust. I content the idea that trust is a product of traditional society based on principle of absolute faith that is confidence in ones and his actions. Trust is irrational, it correspond to notion "sense of trust". Contemporary sociology besides gives another one explanation of trust: trust is a product of rational activity, based on reflection. The modern sociological questioning shows that since early 1990s until 2000s, there is a strong tendency for rising of distrust. I also argue that the post-industrial society is in need of trust which is providing base for social communication

Education as a Condition for Social Well-being of Human

This article touches upon the idea of new educational models which are a guarantee of social well-being. We argue that a classical model of university should necessarily go through a series of changes due to many objective reasons. Contemporary epistemology is symbolizing renaissance. Nowadays knowledge is transformed into information. Hence, information may be interpreted as that, what changes us or as past experience. We bring to the attention different educational models such as: a model of world-class university, an elitist model, a mass model, a two-level model, a networking model, a university of the third age. University is more and more involved in solution of many problems of modern world such as, training of specialists, social elite education, and provision of universal level of education. We also argue that the key task of educational process now is pragmatic values formation instead of the development of inner world of a person through educational process. There are new criteria for understanding the level of developing society. We put particular emphasis and consider the educational model of lifelong learning as one that gives the opportunity to students of different ages to study in various fields of science. This is unlimited research process the sense of which is to find truth, discover new form of knowledge during whole life-time
