Abstract

Wukun’s information philosophyemerged in the 1980s,is the inevitable product of information age as well as philosophy development. Firstly,it adapts to the need of information globalization; at the same time,it summarized the science and philosophy development in modern day and beyond, and it is the theoretical quintessence of human beings in our long history cognizing and changing the nature. It based on the idea that information is the mediate existence,and revealed the world as a double existence of substanceand information. And also it disentangled the relationships between thinking and being (material and spirit), material and information,spirit and information scientifically.Accordingly,it achieved the unification of the materialistic information theory and information methodology,the relationship between information ontology, information epistemology and information axiology,as well as information evolutionism and information society theory.Thus,Wukun’s information philosophy corresponds with the demands of information age, which represents the scientization of philosophy and the philosophization of science.
