Abstract

The specific of valued dimensions of information need to be in a careful consideration. Historical and theoretical development of a problem of value forms idea of value as teleological structure of human being. In culture, this structure appears as norms, ideals, the goods. This structure becomes value by means of emotional presentation in experience. Thanks to this presentation, the things given in experience are allocated with the importance and become valuable. In sociocultural dynamics of value exist as certain regions of significant life and form certain valuable hierarchies. Value of information in pragmatical interpretation is considered as existence at information of the properties doing it valuable. Valuable information is given by qualities, which possess the pragmatical importance in the course of an exchange of this information: efficiency, profitability, utility, importance etc. Such value of information is defined from the purposes of exchange of information. Value of information in axiological interpretation is considered as existence of special valuable information. In this concept, value is considered as a certain type of information. Information essence of value defines it as a model, which provides a variety of a choice in various situations of activity. The purpose structure is the general phenomenon for a pragmatical assessment of information and axiological value of information. Through selection, stereotypization and a universalization of pragmatical properties of information valuable models are created. These models are various for various forms of activity and various cultures. Based on valuable models further there is an assessment of information proceeding not only from its pragmatical properties, but also from compliance to values. Thus, the analysis of axiological and pragmatical conceptions allows revealing characteristics, which are considered in a modern science as basic principle of forming valued information. This principle are: expedient, affection significance, sociocultural specific.
