Abstract

The article presents a philosophical understanding of the problem of values in science. The current changes in society cause interest in this problem because the modern world is a world of new materiality. Changes in the modern digital era have led to a reassessment of the importance of many fundamental values that have developed in previous periods. The purpose of this article is to identify the meaning of value in science. Science forms its own, into scientific values and norms that are associated with the scientific paradigm. The paradigm sets the vector for the development of scientific knowledge and acts as a socio-cultural regulator of scientific activity. In this regard, the main philosophical and methodological approaches to the problem of values are identified. The transformation of the meaning of value is comprehended; the values underlying the scientific worldview and the scientific picture of the world are examined.
