The article presents the philosophical analysis of the innovativeness of science. The problem under study has an interdisciplinary, synthetic nature, and should be con- sidered from the perspective of the development of science and technology with an em- phasis on industry specificities. Technological modernization of production involves in- terrelated changes in facilities and resources based on the introduction of innovations and development of inter-industry relations.
20th century was marked by high innovation in the world scientific activity as a result of the revolutionary discoveries of N. Bohr and A. Einstein. One of the famous scientists involved in the philosophy of science is J. Agassi, who characterized these discoveries as the greatest, because “before Einstein, historians of science did not pay attention to the fact that science is in constant motion” [1, p. 124]. At the end of the 20th century the concept of "technoscience" entered the categorical apparatus of the philosophy of sci- ence. The works of G. Bachelard, B. Latour, D. Harvey, J. Simond, D. Haraway, Mamchur, V. Razin, A. Ogurtsov, V. Lektorsky and others received a wide response. The fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0) has no analogues in the previous experi- ence of mankind. New innovations combine physical, informational and biological worlds that can create, on the one hand, huge opportunities, and, on the other, a poten- tial threat [17].
The rapidly developing innovation activity in recent years has led to an increase in the growth rate of scientific knowledge, which stimulated the development of knowledge- intensive industries, contributed to economic growth and increased political influence of countries that occupy leading positions in the field of science. Along with the deve- lopment of traditional knowledge, scientific creativity gives rise to new branches of ap- plied science: controlled thermonuclear reaction, cloning of animal and human organ- isms, creation of artificial intelligence, etc. In this regard, a number of problems arise that require deep analysis in order to deter- mine the trends of innovative activity in modern science, namely, defining the goals of science development, relationship of scientific innovation with society and nature, de- termining the role of stability and revolutionism in science, dealing with the problem of innovative permissiveness, moral regulation and control of innovation processes and others.
