Abstract
The article analyzes the concept of epistemocracy as a variant of a utopian project of building a society in which political power is distributed on the basis of knowledge and political competence, and the problem of a “bad” (ignorant, poorly informed) voter, whose wrong choice during voting, according to the developers of the concept, can lead to negative consequences, is solved by his education. The idea is substantiated that, on the one hand, this concept meets the intentions of building knowledge societies as a global trend enshrined in UNESCO materials and documents, and, on the other hand, has a number of alarming moments, in particular, related to the introduction of restrictions on universal suffrage for “bad” voters.
