Decline in the Truth and Knowledge Content of Modern Culture
Abstract
The authors of the article are concerned about absurd situations in world politics, when officials with dubious education appear at the head of civilised countries, and the policy itself is increasingly deprived not only of scientific validity, but also of common sense. To substantiate it, a working hypothesis is put forward about a sinusoidal character of the dominance of opposite tendencies of the development of a range of the human spirit. The authors achieve a desired goal put in the title of the paper: to justify a loss of a truth and knowledge content of culture as its modern tendency. Relying on the works of famous philosophers and psychologists, on a theoretical substantiation of their own observations, using statistical data, encyclopaedically known facts of the era of information society, conclusions are drawn: cognition and culture contain radical changes, resulting in a single trend of irrationalisation of the modern stage of cultural evolution.
