Mass Consciousness Technicalization: Factors, Stages and Consequences (Philosophic Analysis of Civilizational Experience)
The author of the article attempts to determine the nature of conscience tecnicalization in the unity of mechanisms, processes and results while bringing in the philosophic and historical concepts of O. Spengler. Conscience technicalization at the ordinary level is caused by the reflection of exchange models, established in their turn in the core of civilization with direct participation of power actors. Civilization preparedness for the new cycle and the choice of historical way are determined by mass conscience tecnicalization. Yet, expedited and total techicalization in the globalized world causes general conscience degradation, its axiological and intellectual simplification, as well as the collapse of its integrity.
