The aim of this paper is to study human problems in an informational society from a historical point of view. In the process of transition from an industrial society to an informational society science and technology underwent a remarkable improvement through the process of specialization and subdivision based on the world view and the methodologies of natural science systematized by R.Descartes and I.Newton. The development of technology also brought about affluence to human life, which in effect reduced manual labor. In the early 20th century, however, there emerged a deepening awareness that the foregoing Descarte-Newtonian paradigm no longer retains its validity for full perception of reality. Thereafter, reality as a system and systematic thinking came to gain greater recognition all over the world. various problems of the contemporary world such as atomic bomb, pollution, destruction of nature, and waste if natural resourses have surfaced as a result of the advancement of technology. However, science and technology are in themselves valuefree, and their directions are often vulnerable to the decision-making of a nation, industrial and other organizations and the masses. In the present paper, I have abalyzed problems encompassing our nation, industrial enterprizes and the indeology of democracy, and searched for measures to promote their flexible growth as an organic system. I have also attempted to verify the stratification of the external value system underlying organic systems from the viewpoint of human needs and awareness. Finally, the role and the limitations of Japan as an informational society and the problems of human education in an informational society were also discussed.
