Abstract
The paper aims to identify specificity of revolutionary technological transformations associated with digitalization processes. Scientific originality of the research lies in the fact that the author applies the categorial apparatus of modern social philosophy to study the dichotomy “industrial society” - “post-industrial society”. The research methodology includes sociocultural, systemic and structural-functional approaches. The research findings are as follows: analysing the information society theory and the knowledge society theory, the author identifies their conceptual-methodological features and reveals their differences. The article substantiates the provision that when approaching a social problem, first of all it’s necessary to clarify the definitions of the key notions constituting its theoretical basis. Accordingly, the author analyses terminological fields of the concepts under study with a view to clarify the definitions of the key notions and to discover their interrelations.
