The scientific community is often found such a term as "national resources of society."In what context it is most often used?What is the practical significance it has for the science and economics of the world?What can be characterized by national resources of Russian society?How to interpret this term in relation to various areas?
Subtleties conceptual apparatus
In most contexts, the term "national resources of society" is closely related to information technology.Of course, the concept itself can be used much more widely.So it often happens.Under the national resources can be understood those related to nature, to the intelligence of the nation, culture and traditions.
But in practice, the term is most often correlated with another - "Information Resources".The essence of this phenomenon.
Information Resources - what is it?
What are the main concepts, revealing the essence of a phenomenon such as information resources?Among the top - a definition based on the theory that the human society has been developing in the course of formation of various historical formations.According to the common classification, there are pre-industrial society, t. E., Those in which the base of life support was based on manual labor.Gradually it developed.The result was an industrial society, where the main efforts were directed at people of wealth production.
appeared a term such as "resource", which means a stock that you can use if necessary.To those that are characteristic of an industrial society, scientists refer, as a rule, resources, material, labor, natural and financial.There are in this world, and there are national resources of society.Industrial formation, according to theorists, social scientists, has evolved into the information.There were, in turn, global and national information resources.
about national information resource
theorists of postindustrial society believe that the modern development of the country grows depending on a variety of information sources - economic, political, technical, - began to feel the need for adequate resources, that would allow, for example, effectivelytransmit, process and store data.As a result, under the current demands of society and the economies of the developed countries, there were the so-called National Information Resources.What are their characteristics?The national resources are characterized by the formation of post-industrial society?
They include, as a rule, to the economic categories.That is the importance of information resources can be traced primarily at the level of work on the efficiency of production and other kinds of business models.Once the tool has appeared in developed countries, the processes in the respective segments of the economy accelerated.
world market for national information resources
theorists speak of established market national information resources.How it works?Present at the countries it exports to each other samples of various resources, which in practice may be a hardware and software solution, various types of patents, drawings, licenses, the concept of production management and economy, knowledge, behavior patterns.Any argument that the information relating to the national resources of society characterized by free access.That is, it is assumed that they can use from your computer each.
So the resources of post-industrial society, therefore, include the knowledge database, some algorithms (in practice, is a computer program that we use today), allowing to solve urgent problems.National information resources, as some experts believe, should have in the eyes of the citizens of no less value than those that are characteristic of the industrial formation.What is their practical significance?
significant information resources
First of all, it is that the national resources of society, related to the type of information, serve as a tool for the creation of socially significant products.What kind of example?The theorists of the information society refers to those of virtually any digital products - files, programs.One of their characteristics - location on a storage medium, electronically (in this case we are talking about the possibility of transmission from one person to another in a non-material form) or traditional - in the form of books or documents.
With information products close neighborhood of the same name service type.What do they represent?According to popular opinion among theorists, information services - it is the result of non-productive activities of people in order to help someone meet certain requirements.In this case we are talking about the need to get the product information.
Information and automated systems
How are mechanisms for resource use, typical of post-industrial systems (which have traditionally taken to refer to the number of automated)?How to rotate them information?
To answer these questions, we're going to have to delve into some theory.For starters try to define what "information system".Under common among theorists treatment of post-industrial society, the term is very capacious.It may include several components.One of them - the same global information society and national resources, the characteristics of which were given above.That is, data, information, knowledge in the form of documents and files.Also, information systems can include data sets designed to structure information for the purpose of their effective use in solving various problems.Another component of information systems - technology, is a tools and methods for collecting, storing and processing data.In addition, information systems have various kinds of mechanisms are functionally significant.This hardware, software, legal instruments, institutional resources, and so on. D.
role of information systems today
Under the terms of the theorists who belong to one of the world's information and national resources of society - is the foundation of modern process control systems.How they find their application in the form of computer systems, including communications.Role of tools designed to process information, experts say, is just as great for the modern developed countries, as well as industrial resources in the industrial society.The economic power of states largely determine not only, say, the national natural resources, but also information.
information and economic systems
the phenomenon in question, closely related, so the economic system.Consider it an example of our country.The operation of modern enterprises, according to theorists, at a level that meets the needs of post-industrial society is only possible when using only quality information resources.Their potential use is as great as the one that is typical for the industry, energy, education.We know that all these phenomena - the national resources of Russia.And their importance little-contested.
However, if you follow the theoretical concepts of post-industrial society, our country has a chance to influence the world only if it will develop mechanisms to ensure the full implementation of the potential inherent in the national information resource.How this should be done?How to use the potential referred to Russian national resource as a set of natural resources, intelligence people, the culture was supplemented with mechanisms specific to the post-industrial trends?
What is the potential of the information society?
Theorists believe that the potential which is present in society should not be limited only to the ability to use technology tools.It is important that in the present state of the appropriate level of scientific school, social institutions have been developed that can give new impetus to use the opportunities that provide information resources.I need a training school professionals who are ready to do it.
National Information Resources of Russia - is thus not only access to technology, it is also possible to carry out relevant studies to qualitative improve methodological and engineering approaches to solving actual problems.Only in this case in the Russian Federation have a chance to build, according to the theoreticians of post-industrialism, modern information society.Actually, it is, according to popular conceptions, may be?
What is the information society?
A common interpretation states that the information legitimately be considered a society where a significant portion of the citizens occupied that receives, processes, transmits or stores various kinds of information, files, data.That is, it operates a major national resource - information through which people can effectively organize any activities.What are the criteria for the development of the information society to the level?Experts call the three major - the prevalence of computer technology, network development, as well as the percentage of the population working in the IT-sphere.
Well, according to these criteria, Russia may well claim to be the country that managed to build an information society.Russian national resource is supplemented by world-known IT-industry giants, growing market of online retailing and other segments of the adjacent (banking, processing, and so on. D.).Some experts also believe that the criterion of post-industrial society can be considered as the ability of citizens to navigate the legal and ethical nuances of the new formation.This is the so-called "information culture".
Information resources and development of
According to some theorists, the prospects for the development of modern states may depend on how well the concept will be introduced to harness the potential of information resources in various sectors of the economy.Why is that?As we said above, most importantly, what it characterized the national resources of society relating to information - it belongs to the economic category.The most important aspect of the development of society and the country - the effectiveness of their use.Economic information - this is one of the most practically significant portion of the resources in question.Consistency of the state, the stability of its production systems and business models thus depends on the quality of the national information resources of society.
connection with international space
interesting fact is that the significance of the concepts of postmodern theorists formations recognized not only in narrow scientific circles, but also at the level of high politics.There are examples of international agreements to which, in the face of the individual countries in the world recognize the importance of working together in the formation of community information resources and related systems.In particular, a number of documents reflecting the signing of this type of intergovernmental agreements, stating that the current partnership is largely based on the quality of information that is used by society - both at the level of individual nations and in terms of global interoperability.
Informatization, experts, governments recognized the most important aspect of the economy and culture of the world.To control procedures to ensure the realization of the resource potential of establishing liability structures and institutions at the state level in the system of executive power.If the relevant agreement signed by the states, provides for the implementation of measures related to the effective use of information resources, with the purpose of solving such problems may be determined by the coordinators, vested with considerable powers.
is also interesting that the conceptual apparatus, which is incorporated by theorists of postindustrial society, virtually the same as set out in international agreements.This may indicate that the problems of the concepts that we are considering today - those that affect national information resources - and taken as a whole, more or less clearly interpreted at the level of international partnership.Including with Russia.Also with a view to the partners in the face of various states were not differences in the understanding of the goals and objectives that arise when working together, can be defined standards on which participants in the process of consolidation of state priorities in the field of development of information society building can interact.At the same time it is also possible elements of standardization and the establishment of certification procedures for the Partnership whether they have the correct tools to use in the arrangements fixed rules and regulations.
Resources and Russian IT-space
The practice can boast of our country, if we talk about the development of the information culture, how to effectively use our respective resources, the level of penetration of the technologies?Earlier we told what national resources are characterized by the type of the information society - relationship to the economy.How this trend is expressed in Russia?
examples that would give answers to certain issues in an optimistic vein, Russia has enough.Take consideration of this trend, as the translation of the content of the library (books, articles, magazines) from traditional paper to digital form.Here Russia is quite succeeds.We have, for example, this online project as "Rukont" - the national digital resource where Internet users can download books, periodicals, different kinds of multimedia content - audio, video and software.This portal is an inter-branch library on the basis of the concept of "KONTEKSTUM.""Rukont" - the national digital resource, familiar to many Russians, it is updated with new sources of knowledge on a daily basis.Its creator is actively working to improve the functionality of the interface is carried out constant expansion of the content of content.Resource has a large network of partners, in which the number of large publishing houses, universities, libraries.And not only in Russia but also abroad.
Russia has developed a system of reference of electronic catalogs.They can find information, perhaps of most registered in the country of legal entities - businesses, government agencies, non-profit organizations.If we, for example, are interested in Foundation "National Resources", the information on this facility, we can easily find even one online directory.
with significant IT-sphere in the economy have also okay.The turnover of the largest Russian corporations in this area amount to billions of dollars.Many IT-brands of our country are known worldwide and are leaders in their segments.In Russia, there is also a competitive online projects - known national resource for the exchange of mail, not even one, a huge social network, has its own search engine.
As for the spread of the Internet in Russia, these figures are broadly comparable with the developed countries.Access to the network is, for almost all the inhabitants of towns, and through multiple channels.This wired communications, mobile and satellite.Therefore, the level of information culture we probably should not give in to what is present in developed countries.This is very important.This, according to theorists, what characterized the national resources of postindustrial society type.In addition, of course, the economic factor.
