Annotation:
The article considers a new trend of socio-philosophical analysis — techno- humanism — as a modern type of worldview. It points out that technohumanism can act as a “new form of humanism” at the current stage of scientific and technological progress. Nowadays a person has the opportunity to show love for himself, for his nature, freedom, responsibility, and self-improvement through technology. Classical humanism of the Renaissance is being revived through technology in a new, unexplored quality. Technohumanism as a human worldview of the 21st century involves an increasing number of people and is spreading among large communities.
The article also discusses possible individual directions of the entire worldview system of technohumanism. We have identified five directions: technosociocentrism, technoindividualism, technonaturalism, technotranscendentalism, technocommunitaria- nism. Technosociocentrism orients a person to the values of social interaction through scientific and technological progress. Technoindividualism creates a space for addressing the individual nature of a person due to the latest technologies. Technonaturalism develops prerequisites for the returning the original appearance of planet Earth using the latest technologies. Technotranscendentalism shows the possibility of overrunning the boundaries of the material due to such technologies. Technocommunitarianism outlines the prospects for building an utopian social world. The article does not fully represent each direction, but identifies the possibility of their occurrence due to academic philosophical interest.
