Summary/Abstract: The article substantiates that the modern social system, the dynamism and specificity of which are due to the intensive development of information technology and network communications, has dramatically changed the nature of conflict resolution and warfare. It is shown that, in essence, network warfare is reduced to a special form of conflict, when their participants use network forms of organization, doctrine, strategy and technology that are best adapted to the current stage of development of the information society. It turns out that one of the goals of the impact of network wars on society is the destruction of the meaning unity of the world and man, in connection with which the basic values of the people and the state, national, religious and cultural identity are destroyed. The dialectical interrelation of network wars with information and information-psychological wars is shown.
