Impact of Technology on Modern Society—A Philosophical Analysis of the Formation of Technogenic Environment

Abstract

The interaction between science and technology is highly relevant in recent times of global crisis accompanied by the revision of the ideological principles of universal culture. Modern technological advances and their broader application in human activities naturally lead to the formation of technical complexes. The growth of these complexes and the emerging technological connections between remote regions determine the interdependence of these formations and put forward the idea of a specific global technogenic environment. This paper is aimed to analyze the concept of technology and the technogenic environment and to show the importance of the philosophical aspects of the latter. This research is especially relevant as it facilitates the development of philosophy and the implementation of general scientific and national programs in the field of social and humanitarian research. Based on the past and current research in this field, a philosophical analysis of the formation of the technogenic environment was conducted, an impact of technological progress on modern society was explored.

“…Reliability and accuracy of the information, its processing objectivity, and mining and geological indices as well as mineral occurrence conditions, determined as a result, will influence mining efficiency and the potential for selective extraction of the deposit mine-rals [25], [26]. Assessment of the accumulated technogenic mineral formations for their rational development [27], [28] is implemented with the help of geometrization techniques as well as calculation of rock amount and useful component being among the most interesting and helpful applications of subsoil geometrization. The geometrization techniques, providing the required accuracy to assess both actual and predictive amounts of a useful component, are the topical ones; moreover, they become more and more essential owing to growing demand for minerals.…”

The meaning of recreational sports for modern society as a lifestyle to stay active and fit

“…Modern society is a social organization influenced by technological, economic, political and cultural developments in the contemporary era. In contrast to traditional societies, which tend to be more static and limited in technology and mobility, modern societies tend to be more dynamic, complex and open to change (Kulzhanova et al, 2020).…”

OTT Media Streaming in COVID-19 Lockdown: The Indian Experience

“…Biswal and Chakraborty (2019) assert that technology-driven platforms like Facebook have redefined news. Moreover, Kulzhanova et al (2020) and Kusuma, Paul, and Biswal (2021) foresee forming a technogenic environment in society that further attempts to attain a universal culture. Technologies have the power to harness social change and empowerment.…”
