论人类信息活动方式与文明形态、价值观念变革的一致性

On Uniformity of Human Information Moving Way with Civilization Form and Change of Values

人类的不同文明时代是以不同的信息处理、创制和传播方式为其技术前提的。农业文明时代的自给自足的经济体制、君主集权的政治体制,是以建立在自我传播和亲身传播基础上的,短程而分散的,通过团体和组织传播信息的活动方式为其技术前提的,在这种体制和信息活动方式之下,难以形成大众化、一元化的价值观念体系;工业文明时代的高度统一的大规模经济体制、高度国家集权的政治体制,以自上而下权威制控的大众传播信息活动方式为其技术前提,在这种体制和信息活动方式之下,很容易形成以多数民众为基础的大众化、一元化的价值观念体系;信息社会文明时代的全新的经济、政治体制则以计算机网络化的信息活动方式为其技术前提,网络化的信息处理、创制和传播方式在其形式上具有交互性、平行性、开放性、全球性、多元性、自由性、共享性、平等性和非权威主义的基本特征。正是这种网络化信息活动方式的发展和普及,有可能使人类价值观念模式的变革朝着多元化的方向发展。相对于不同的文明时代,人类信息处理、创制和传播的时间方向也从指向历史、关注现在,转变到了创新未来。

Different human stage of civilization takes different information processing, formulating and propagation way as the prerequisite of technology. The self-sufficing economic system and the centralized government by monarch in times of agricultural civilization build on the self-propagation and firsthand propagation, which are short and dispersive. Through the information promulgating activities by parties and organizations, it is hard to form the popular and unified value system under such system and way of information activities. The highly unified large-scale economic system and centralized political system in the age of industrial civilization, taking the mass propagation informationmoving way of authority control from top to bottom as the prerequisite of technology, it is easy to form the popular and unified value system on the basis of majority of masses under such system and information moving ways. The new economic structure and political system in the age of information social civilization are on the technical premise of information moving way of Net. The forms of the networking information processing, creating and promulgating have the basic characteristics of interactivity, parallelism, openness, globality, diversity, freedom, sharability, equality and inauthoritativeness. The development and popularization of this kind of networking information moving way precisely lead the change of the human value mode to numerous directions. Relative to different stages of civilization, from pointing to history and giving attention to present, the human information processing, creating and direction of time of propagation change to innovate the future.
