FACTORS OF MODERN SOCIETY, DETERMINING HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS

The article analyzes the complex mechanism of forming human consciousness in modern society. We suggest that investigation of the factors influencing the con- sciousness of an individual is one of the important tasks of philosophy. It is the spi- ritual sphere that determines behavior, thinking and world view of a human. At present, it is necessary to ascertain the existence of an entire industry of con- sciousness. Recently the impact on consciousness is not of an individual character, as it was in traditional societies, today it is an entire branch that allows forming a certain mentality in recipients. If in the period of developing philosophical thought the special place was occupied by subject-to-subject relations, or the "teacher– pupil" principle, at the present stage the process of socialization and social trans- mission has more subjective-objective character.
