The article presents problems of schools’ functioning in the conditions of social change. Social change places new demands on the school concerning the scope of knowledge and type of skills students and graduates need in preparation for work and social life, as well as relationships with other people. The author presents in the article issues of how school functions under conditions of rapid change. He notes that it is a social institution, so it changes with the whole of society. In these new, complex conditions, the school cannot cope with the growing social and economic expectations. It is still an institution strongly rooted in tradition. Therefore, it does not meet the standards of an increasingly democratic society, it does not sufficiently respond to the needs of the labour market. In this situation, school crisis is more and more often discussed in Poland and in the world. The author poses the question: What will the education of tomorrow look like? In the text, he argues that it is difficult to make optimistic predictions about the successful construction of tomorrow’s education. This state of affairs will not change until the pool of contemporary scientific knowledge in the field of pedagogy and the entirety of decision-making in educational management become completely separate fields, each of which is governed by different principles and functions as an entity existing in and of itself.

In few affairs is political wisdom so put to the test as in the treatment of institutions that are growing old. Age in these cases has little to do with mere antiquity: the forms of social life are subject to no set term of years. It is a matter of continuing adaptability. Some institutions, like the British monarchy, possess this attribute in an astounding degree. Others, like the House of Lords, betray a hardening of the arteries that bodes ill for their survival in times of rapid change. For the speed of social change affects not only their physical and conceptual environment; it acts also upon, and through, the temper of the politicians and the public. In such periods society will sometimes administer a sudden coup de grâce to its more recalcitrant institutions, abolishing at one stroke both the abuses they have inflicted and the garnered wisdom they enshrine. The loss involved in these moments is seldom evident until long after, when it has to be made good ab ovo.To such moods the Gallic genius is peculiarly liable; and it was in one of them that the French crashed open the gates of the nineteenth century and nailed the atomic theory of society to the lintel. “There are no longer any guilds in the state, but only the private interest of each individual and the general interest. No one may arouse in the citizens any intermediate interest, or separate them from the public weal by corporate sentiment.”

In the article, the issue of the relationship between science and the sphere of cultural values is considered in two mutually correlated aspects. First, it reveals the ambivalent status of science as the most important social institution in a modern dynamically transforming society, which, in accordance with the very popular metaphor of U. Beck, is increasingly called the “risk society.” Secondly, the problem of sociocultural determination of scientific knowledge is interpreted as a problem of the axiology of science. At the same time, the relationship between social and intrascientific (cognitive) values is examined through the prism of possible forms and mechanisms of their philosophical and methodological representation. The author examines the specificity of pre-requisite knowledge, especially in the form as the metatheoretical foundations of scientific research is revealed. The article reveals the ambivalent nature of the value status of science in the context of changing socio-cultural priorities of the industrial civilization, against the background of a brief reconstruction of the main ideas of U. Beck’s concept of reflexive modernization, the theory of risk-generating development of science and high technologies by G. Bechmann, Z. Bauman’s idea about sociocultural imbalance as an essential characteristic of “individualized society.” The specificity of the value determination of scientific knowledge is considered in the context of substantiating the sociocognitive approach as the most important result of the philosophical and methodological research in the 20th century. Within the framework of this approach, two alternative strategies are distinguished, for using social and cognitive values as specific forms of prerequisite knowledge. One of the strategies is focused on development of conceptual foundations of science and rationally grounded metatheoretical structures (V.S. Stepin). The second strategy gives preference to non-conceptual (pre-conceptual) forms of background knowledge as productive metaphors that perform the functions of methodological heuristics and the integration of scientific knowledge into culture (M. Foucault, L. Laudan, et al.). The article concludes that there is the peculiar bifunctionality of the cultural valuein relation to science. On the one hand, science itself is a fundamental value in modern culture, although its impact on social life is ambivalent. On the other hand, the dominant values of risk society influence the formation of a new image of science and its methodological tools.

Taking up the case of climate change, the conclusion considers the argument for moretechnocracy in the face of ‘the end world as we know it’. Climate change is probably the strongest case for a technocratic model of political decision-making. At the very least, insufficient political adherence to the scientific evidence on climate change is an almost commonsensical part of the problem of in the current state of affairs. While fully acknowledging this problem, the chapter argues that attention to the destructive and mutually reinforcing interplay of technocracy and populism is necessary also in to the all-important challenge of climate change.

The essay looks at the legal struggles fought on behalf of what has been characterized as a progressive ‘LGBTQ movement’ for the rights of sexual minorities and argues that these struggles have been ill-thought and amount to a violation of the law and an inversion of law’s role in social life. While law and changes in the law emerge from social struggle, these legal battles have sought to short-circuit that struggle and effect social change through the juridical. This amounts to violence upon the law and upon communities of sexual minorities, like the hijras, whom these legal struggles claim to represent. Closely examining the Naz judgement of the Delhi High Court, the Koushal judgement of the Supreme Court and the NALSA judgement on ‘transgenders’, the essay argues that we need to re-think our negotiation and languages of the law and rely on deep sociological engagement rather than abstract ‘progressive’ lingo to change the law and the world.

Sociology has long been interested in the study of deliberation; it is a “big idea” that might guide the organization of modern social life. While in some strands of sociology it still is, this chapter argues that sociological work on deliberation has by and large moved away from big ideas toward a narrow project that is somewhat disconnected from the world outside the ivory tower. The chapter presents the best sociology has to offer scholars of deliberation, with a focus on ideas and practice. Specifically, the chapter advocates an approach to deliberation that engages with the relational turn of sociology, focusing less on decision-making outcomes and more on social relations and dynamics.

As a universal religion, Islam has promised social change in society. Even so, a number of Muslim and Islamic scholars have also admitted that Islam has all the conditions to rise and color the social life of the world community. This article will explain the Islamic response to social change in society, including the role of fatwa as ijtihad products. Religion and Social still get space in the community. At least there are 3 bargaining power positions that are given between religion and society, namely: Religious affairs are more dominant, community affairs are more dominant and compromise between religion and social society in the frame of religion and social frame. This certainly shows that religion as a response to social change as a win-win solution to community life. Sebagai agama universal, Islam telah menjanjikan perubahan sosial di masyarakat. Pun demikian dengan sejumlah cendekiawan muslim serta Islamolog ikut mengakui jika Islam memiliki segala syarat untuk bangkit dan mewarnai kehidupan sosial masyarakat dunia. Artikel ini akan menjelaskan tentang respon Islam terhadap perubahan sosial masyarakat termasuk juga perani fatwa sebagai produk ijtihad. Agama dan Sosial masih mendapatkan ruang di masyarakat. Setidaknya ada 3 posisi daya tawar yang diberikan antara agama dan masyarakat, yaitu: Urusan agama lebih dominan, urusan masyarakat lebih dominan dan kompromi antara agama dan sosial kemasyarakatan dalam bingkai agama maupun bingkai sosial. Hal ini tentunya menunjukan bahwa agama sebagai respon perubahan sosial sebagai win win solution kehidupan bermasyarakat.

Today, the human problem in social life concerning education is growing more complex; many new ideas emerge as the level of human intellectuality grows. This paper will reveal the current issue of education in Indonesia and discuss ideas from the concept of liberal education. The basic issue of education criticized by liberal education is that education today focuses more on the needs of society than the educational objectives themselves. Education as a tool to transfer science, values, and agents of social change is seen as one alternative solution in the framework of improving people's lives. The education in which values are embodied is one of the efforts offered by genuine liberal education, aimed at giving us the habits, ideas and techniques necessary to continue our own education. Humans have the ability to learn continuously throughout life so that we can prepare ourselves to study and again as long as we are alive.
