Abstract

Human society is evolving toward the future network information society. In this paper, we identify the interconnected level as the key factor driving the evolution of human society and incorporate it into our proposed evolutionary model of social formation. We show the entire process of social formation evolution at the interconnected level through theoretical analysis and simulation. Our result is consistent with what human beings have gone through. By contrast, the result presents the following four characteristics of the future network information society: the personalization of goods or services, the downsizing of enterprises or organizations, the decentralization of production or life, and the sharing of production or living tools. We regard the future network information society as a deeply interconnected “primitive society”.
