The heuristic potential of the ‘sociocode’ concept in the analysis of the social essence and historical typology is considered. The qualitative difference typology of the cultural oases provides the basis for solving the problem of ethnocultural contradictions.

The foundations for conceptualizing ‘knowledge society’ are revealed.
