The problem of communication in the modern information society

Abstract

It is known that communication touches practically all spheres of a modern person’s being today, and changes in communications change the world, its integrity. Thus, the problem of communication as a phenomenon of social life which is inseparable from the problem of people’s interactions arises not accidently. The growth of the significance of this phenomenon in society, the plurality of existing studies of its impact on both the person and society as a whole, do indicate that the center of research is the sphere of knowledge about processes that occur primarily in the information sphere. Recently, the interest in communication from representatives of a wide variety of scientific areas is growing significantly. The history of the development of public opinion suggests that philosophers and sociologists, political scientists and cultural scientists, psychologists and educators, linguists and journalists have always, to a greater or lesser extent, addressed the problems of human communication.
