Abstract

The paper actualizes the theme of social reality construction amidst the development of innovative technologies forming the techno-social space, in which technological and social aspects are closely intertwined in the context of mutually conditioned changes. Based on conceptual ideas of phenomenology, the mental bases of the social world exploration are accentuated and the inclusion of modern technologies in the processes of the social distribution of knowledge, transfer, and assimilation of information, in everyday practices of communication and new forms of social interaction is considered. The thesaurus approach problematizes the changing content of knowledge, reveals the thesaurus worldviews formed in the context of virtual and augmented reality. It is shown that the strengthening of the role of information technologies capable of performing certain cognitive functions deepens the functional relationship between technology and human beings in the process of knowledge production. This demonstrates new aspects of constructing social reality. The separation of knowledge and methods of its obtaining from the social subject as a result of the application of new analytical methods for big data processing is analyzed separately. The increasing role of innovative technologies in the implementation of socio-cultural subjectivity reflecting the ability of an individual or a social group, or society as a whole to act as a creative and transformative principle in the construction of social reality, is emphasized.
