Why is it important?

The author finds a spirit of the processes within development of knowledge-based society and innovative economy depends on so-called Master–Slave dialectic. In Europe, Master–Slave dialectic caused the leading role of scientists. In Russia, scientists depended on the Government and played secondary role in economy. Originality of the paper is the reconstruction of social forms, which caused the social progress in Russia.

Perspectives

The author of this article uses a complex of methods. He applies a phenomenological approach, mixed with the dialectics and analytical approach. Phenomenological approach presupposes the neediness of attention on a work of the conscious actions within formation of the social experiences. The modification of dialectics helps to make the comprehension of the history of social relations as a game of forces in self-consciousness, which nowadays bases on the attitudes between leaders and led people. A variant of analytic methodology helps to understand each problem as a puzzle. Research is the philosophical treatise, which demonstrates the speculative evaluation of industrial–postindustrial transition in Russian society. It can help to improve the understanding of the mechanisms of leadership in society.
