Abstract

The following article outlines the conceptual and categorical framework of the philosophy of the information economy as a relevant scientific pursuit. This framework emerges from the fusion of philosophical and economic principles in the era of globalization, the information society, and the digital economy. It exposes the laws that govern the evolution of production, distribution, exchange, and consumption, thereby synthesizing modern advances in economic science during the age of informatization. The primary objectives are defined, with a focus on establishing a pertinent conceptual and categorical structure for the philosophy of the information economy. This structure is designed to foster innovative principles for the information society, which, in turn, facilitate the development of inherent human capabilities, broadening the horizons of the traditional "spirit/mind-body" dichotomy that were formerly confined by both individuals and society.


The analysis encompasses recent research and publications, with the philosophy of the information economy drawing upon diverse economic models of scientific and technological progress proposed by figures like Brynjolfsson and McAfee (2014), J. Trinks (1992), M. Furst (1992), and R. Florida (2014) and others. These models are grounded in addressing human challenges. The article uncovers the unexplored facets of the overarching issue—the theoretical and practical facets of conceptualizing the philosophy of the information economy as a new scientific domain that amalgamates philosophy and economics, politics and ecology, religion and morality. It also devises pathways for overcoming crises through philosophical and methodological reasoning.
