- Abstract
- Starting this paper by discussing the nature of information, where it comes from and its uses, highlighting the importance of its characteristic to be the prime element in human development. It also refers to the ways in which we understand information, whether as a process or as a phenomenon and, therefore, emphasises its attributes as a means of accessing science, wisdom and the truth. Information as such does not have an identity of its own, it has to be upheld ... by an object, be it material or electronic. Here also it refers to its features, such as instability, inconsistency, perpetuity, etc. A new theory of knowledge is formulating, where information is taking as its paradigm, which is named "Informationisms" and it isan original idea of the author. The influence of information is studied as a prime element in human culture. Information is the first element in the development of the individual and, indeed, as well, in the development of humankind as a whole. It is giving us a general overview of the future influence of the different types of cultures, both humanistic and technological ones. The importance of information is so that it could become a factor in the human race annihilation from the Earth planet, but human beings have decided to transform their way of life and the direction in which their civilization should be conducted.
