Communication in the condition of networking society: Potential of actor-networking interaction

Abstract

Introduction. One of the most important conditions for the existence of a network as an organizing principle of social existence is the process of multidimensional communications. Networks, as opposed to hierarchical systems, make their existence possible only in the discourse of interactive communications. Main part. In the article, the author offers a socio-philosophical analysis of the existence of communication in a networked society from various methodological positions. In the course of the study, it becomes clear that the networking of communications transforms them at various levels: digital, socio-political, anthropological, ethical. Conclusion. In the conclusion of the article, the author concludes that in the conditions of a network society, communication processes are undergoing serious changes. The multidimensionality and openness of the communication systems of the network society are directly determined by the very nature of the network, its plasticity, flexibility and variability, which we observe today.
