Summary/Abstract: The paper is dealing with a problem of informative society where information, in the true sense of the word, – scientific, technological, artistic, communicational, economic or cosmic – becomes of the greatest value. It is known that man as the aggregate of all of his social relations is a product, hence a “copy” of a given society. Therefore, an image of man of future totally depends on the society of future to be. In the author’s opinion humankind tends to be informative society. In other words, it will not be a capitalist society with its strivings for profit by every means, accumulations of wealth in hands of a few oligarchs (such a society is long outdated historically and economically) but that will not be a communist society either, with its promising principle “From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs” (since this aim or ideal has proven to be unattainable, unrealizable under limited natural resources of our planet). Most likely it will be socialism in the European sense of the term which perfectly corresponds with the concept of “informative society ”.
