Abstract:
the article conducts a comparative analysis based on the analysis of the concepts of “noosphere”, “economy” and “noonomy”. The sources of genesis, content and structure of noonomy are revealed. Based on this comparison of the conceptual apparatus and the systemic quality of the studied phenomena, the article argues the thesis that, despite some external similarity of these concepts (the concept of noonomy creates the appearance of a synthesis of the concepts of noosphere and economy), they are qualitatively different. The article substantiates the conclusion about the nonidentity of the studied categories, as well as the invalidity of interpreting noonomy as one of the categories of economy and noosphere that develop, but retain the basic initial properties of their variety. The qualitative difference between the sources of genesis, content, forms, development patterns of noonomy and noosphere is shown. It is concluded that the conceptual core of noonomy is not a synthesis of the concepts of noosphere and economy as a simple sum of their theoretical constructions, but the disclosure of a potential qualitative leap towards a new way of satisfying human needs and improving living conditions, and civilizational development as well.
