Evolution of the “Power of Communications†: from Post-truth to Post-reality. Opportunities and Limits of Social and Political Governance

The ongoing transformation of the world politics that are the results of the crisis of the americano-centric globalization and related crisis of the Americano-centric institutionalization put forward the issue of the new methods of management of the controversial socio-economic and social-politic tendencies The key problem of the contemporary world is the excessive role of informational manipulations and related technologies including military hybrid propaganda in the main areas of competition and disengagement. The Western informational mainstream uses multiple factoids that are presented as the real facts. The system of management of the global informational processes served as one of the major tools of the global interrelationship as we know it. “Post-reality†became one of the currently frequently used methods of formation of new geopolitical spaces and reshaping the geo-economic landscape. The post-reality is a more complex development of the post-truth technologies that secured the US dominance in the global informational environment through the era of American unipolarity. The phenomena of post-reality on the one hand gives the opportunity to manage actively the process of geoeconomic regionalization, but on the other provides for preservation of US global dominance relying upon the primacy in the global informational environment. The on-going crisis of the “world of the power of communications†that was praised by the researches of media-sphere in the beginning of 2000s, creates a highly contradictory socio-informational environment that in turn creates the ground for the effect of socio-communication enclavism. And that is the fertile social and technological ground for constructing the post-reality as the socio-political reality.
