Professor E.S. Demidenko’s ideas are connected with the need to comprehend the destructive impact of the processes of the world urbanization and technospherization on the biospheric life and man’s transformation. The article reviews E.S. Demidenko’s main achievements in the field of the world process of urbanization as the final stage of the technospherization process of the planet Earth; in the field of technogenic social progress; socio-technogenic development of the earthly life and the world; change in the life evolution on the Earth with the transition from the biospheric-biological to the socio-techno-biological system of life, namely post-biospheric; man’s global socio- and eco-technological transformation; methodological plan of the theory which is a systematic scientific socio-natural approach and a philosophical multidisciplinary approach to global phenomena, allowing sciences to explore universal and other significant problems of our time. Strategic promising areas of research are formulated, developed by the scientific and philosophical school with the support of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the Russian Ecological Academy and the country’s leading universities.
