Information Civilization

Mankind can no longer deny that the idealism in the concept of communication is reflected in the practice of the information society- radio, television, telephone, computers, satellite, two-way cable, home theater systems, and hundreds of other items of comfort. One basic characteristic of the information civilization is that it has global dimensions. It is expanding into the whole universe in a unified way. The computer and satellite technologies are capable of providing any information anywhere instantly. Global information utility network is on the way to its establishment. Ordinary citizens all over the world will have easy access to this network and be able to exchange information and ideas on payment of some charges and get whatever information one needs. In due course there will be a global culture, a global community. The information civilization being fundamentally a humanistic civilization will bring unification of the present spiritual and materialist civilizations.
