this article analyzes the need and theoretical foundations of researching information-cultural threats in the conditions of digital transformation, the theoretical-methodological foundations of socio- philosophical research of inter-ethnic harmony and solidarity in the conditions of information-cultural struggles. Key words: information, informational-cultural threats, informational- religious threats, informational-psychological threats, secularism, international harmony, digital transformation, terrorism, nationalism, social cooperation. In the conditions of digital transformation, the research of informational and cultural threats and the assessment of social relations on this basis are gaining relevance. The second half of the last century is recognized as a period of rapid, large-scale development of information systems and telecommunication technologies, their penetration into almost all aspects of life and human activities, as well as the globalization of the information space, which has influenced and continues to influence the entire world development. It is noteworthy that people's need for active information exchange within the country and outside the world is greatly increasing. Such a rapid development of the information field, the growth of its potential and opportunities, its wide use in various areas of public and state life, can be one of the important factors determining the development of humanity in the new XXI century. It reflects the legal stage of the evolution of modern society characterized by the wide application of information technologies and the development of the global information environment in the context of digital transformation. The process of forming a new society is related to the correct understanding and rational use of the possibilities of information technologies. The concept of "information" was introduced into scientific circulation in 1928 by the American scientist R. Hartley in order to define the criterion of quantitative measurement of information transmitted through technical communication channels. In Hozip, this term is used in different meanings. Information in some (household) cases is information about a certain thing or event given by people, sometimes (cybernetics) - an organized change, a 180 CURRENT APPROACHES AND NEW RESEARCH IN MODERN SCIENCES International scientific-online conference measure of the organization of a system, in other cases, it is understood to represent and reflect the various aspects of objects. In addition to the many confusions about the essence of information, this concept has not yet been given a clear, universally recognized definition, and sometimes it is even thought that such a definition cannot be given. For example, according to T. Stoner, "we do not know what information is, except that we live in a society that we call an information society" [1]. In addition, we try to clarify the essence of the concept of "information". In the explanatory dictionary of the Uzbek language, the concept of "information" is defined as follows: Akborot - (Latin "information" - to explain, explain) is one of the main concepts of modern science and politics; It is information transmitted by people first orally, and later in written or other forms [2]. So, we can summarize the definitions of information as follows: it is a broad concept that includes information about all existing objects, beings, and processes. At the same time, information is information, messages, and news that are transmitted between people. Today, the planning and management of information production and the improvement of the quality of economic development are of great importance for all spheres of our social life. Of course, this information has a positive side, but it also has a negative side, that is, a harmful side, which not only threatens human life and future, but also destroys the life of society. Considering these two sides of the issue, information can be divided into the following types: socially useful information and harmful information. Socially useful information does great things such as development of society and people's happiness, enrichment and increase of labor productivity, ensuring peace, while harmful information is information aimed at disruption, destruction, derailment of society and people's lives, harming peace. Currently, the concepts of "information threat" and "information attack" are widely used in scientific usage. If we pay attention to the etymology of these concepts, it can be concluded that they can be used as synonyms. In historical sources, the word "attack" is used more widely. In essence, the term "khuruj" is also found in the book "Temur's Tuzuklari" by Sohibqiron Amir Temur. That is, the writings titled "My fifth council during the invasion", "Sixth council during the invasion", "Seventh council during the invasion" describe how the Ghanim attacked and the measures taken against it.
