A look at "digitalization" in terms of life meanings and values

Abstract

The article discusses the impact of the introduction of digital technologies on basic life meanings and values: spiritual freedom, the value of order, the desire for meaningfulness, the value of privacy of personal life, the value of creativity. The methodological basis of the study was a philosophical and cultural-nthropological analysis of the regulatory framework for ongoing digitalization, the definition of the main basic properties of a person: logos, catholicity, spiritual freedom, etc. It is noted that digitalization is a kind of quintessence of technology, bringing technology to the greatest extent closer to the living fabric of human communication, social processes, politics, education, etc. The positive and negative aspects of the introduction of digitalization are identified. Digitalization is only a tool that can be both useful and dangerous, so our culture has yet to develop a special attitude towards this field of technology in order to successfully cope with the challenges of digitalization.
