Abstract The author analyses the phenomena that give dynamics to the socio-economic processes towards their differentiation of modern societies. He characterises the most important social trends in selected historical periods, starting from the first industrial revolution. The author poses the fundamental question whether today we are dealing with some new cycle of culture still difficult to define, but referring to the earliest eras in culture? In search of the answer, he considers, among other things, the problem of control over production and social processes, economic transformations, differentiation of codes enriching communication, semantic and axiological distortions, reanalogisation of production, dispersion of societies.
