INFORMATION CHALLENGES IN THE CONTEXT OF POSTMODERN WORLD VIEW
Journal Title: Вісник Львівського університету - Year 2018, Vol 18, Issue
Abstract
The article which is brought to the readers’ attention is an attempt to comprehend modern information threats through the prism of postmodernism, which makes it possible to reconcile the postmodern worldview and the ideology of the hybrid war. In the external similarities of the common features of the paradigm of modern worldview and the ideology of the hybrid war, there are some significant differences between them, first of all, the understanding of the vector and means of civilization advancement. For example, Russia resorts to a violation of the legal foundations of the existence of man, society, state and world order in general. All of this takes place in the format of a hybrid war with the use of electronic instruments (fake information, interference in the electoral system of states, etc.) in order to destabilize the situation. The problem is that this country sees it as the path of modernization and self-expression in contrast to the improvement of its own state, raising the standard of living and strengthening the rights of citizens. The information challenges posed by the hybrid war fare are primarily aimed at undermining such basics of human perception as the idea of human rights, the rule of law, and the state. From the outside, the postmodern world view and the ideology of the hybrid war fare are similar, but cardinally they are divided on different poles by the understanding of the world as chaos – the moderation of “controlled chaos”; perception – the rejection of the principle of polycentricity, polyvariance; creation of structures – deconstruction; the meanings that are introduced in the understanding of modernization
