摘要：This article is dedicated to the problems and processes of the activation of scientific and technologicalprogress in the context of contemporary challenges of the creation of a knowledge-based society andknowledge economy. The main focus here is on activating innovations, scientific and technological progressand creating various preconditions for the development of a knowledge-based society and knowledge economy.The contemporary processes and phenomena of innovations of scientific and technological progress andof its activation are analyzed in a complex manner; the needs for the purposeful activation and accelerationof scientific and technological progress, in particular in response to the aspirations of the knowledge-basedsociety and the creation of a knowledge economy, are investigated in the presented material.The role and importance of innovation activities and the acceleration of scientific and technologicaladvance in the context of the creation of a knowledge-based society and a knowledge economy are revealedand highlighted. New ideas of the search and use of synergetic effects, as well as a new theoretical approachbased on the so-called universal principle of the creation of a “new quality,” are described.The results of the presented research can be used for preparing practical recommendations and methodologiesthat could be applied in the creation and implementation of the managerial and economic instrumentsand support systems aimed at the purpose of activating the processes of innovations and scientific andtechnological progress. These recommendations and methodolies could also be utilized in the developmentof international relations in the context of what is required in the creation of a knowledge-based society andknowledge economy.It is shown that the problems and processes of scientific and technological progress can be appreciated asan extremely important and viable field of scientific research on the creation and development of a knowledgeeconomy.
