Social Consequences of the Computer Science Revolution

Summary/Abstract: The presupposition for every revolutionizing within society is that the more progressive areas should already have developed the productive forces that provide and comprise its material basis. The growth of socialist society has its material foundation in the technological revolution in industry, mechanization, information, and science. The productive forces of electromechanization are a presupposition and a foundation for the rise and maturity of a socialist community in which the working class is liberated through collectivization and socialization and a mass society with a beneficent social state is formed as a consequence. Yet it is not possible to achieve communism on such a material basis. Its presupposition is total liberation of labour and the freeing of each person from the constraint of physical necessities. This requires universal productive forces with a universal education and universal human activity. The material basis for this epoch-making world-historical turn is being provided by the computer-science and expected all round technological revolution. Its productive forces make it possible that the most important final aim of socialism, the liberation of labour, should be implemented. They achieve this through changing the manner of production. All the relationships within social reproduction are being chanced, radically modified, and revolutionized. They are subjected to the all-round devolution and withering away of each state. The miniaturization of productive relationships goes along with the miniaturization of productive forces. Collectivism is being suppressed and supplemented by communist individualism.
