    According to this publication (Dinov, I. D. (2013). The Rise of Infocracy: Virtualized Human Interplays, Decline of Physical Interactions, and the Adaptation of People’s Social Valuation System. UCLA: Statistics Online Computational Resource. Retrieved from https://escholarship.org/uc/item/2qv4g2t4), Infocracy is defined as:

    "the next stage of the social evolution of meritocracy, where the foundation of the social valuation is based on merits and perception of intellectual abilities. The self and collective infocratic social valuation of individuals is purely based on their capacity to swiftly discover, efficiently retrieve, individually process and reliably aggregate immense amounts of digital information."
