Abstract
The work is devoted to reflections on the text of A.A. Zinoviev’s dystopia “The Global Humant Hill”. The main ideas of the work, the general trends in the development of civilization outlined in the novel are traced. The close connection of the thoughts and ideas reflected in the work with the pressing problems of the development of modern society is noted. The danger of dehumanization of human society, submission to social standards, blindly following the path of material progress is shown. The author of the article believes that one of the main problems described in the dystopia is connected with a lack of understanding of the true nature of the human personality, the psychological depth of a person, his moral, spiritual basis, ignoring which leads to disastrous consequences. Attention is drawn to the importance of subordinating scientific and technological development to the ideas of human welfare, to critical and skeptical attitude to progressive technocratic social models associated with digitalization, computerization, artificial intelligence. Zinoviev’s novel is seen as a warning to younger contemporaries and future generations, for whom a collision with a complex of problems associated with a new stage of human society development is inevitable.
