The goal is to substantiate the possibility of using the culture-centered paradigm of education as the basis for the development of education in the era of the fourth industrial revolution, which forms a person with a technocratic mindset, aimed at forming a person not only as a carrier of knowledge, but also as a carrier of values and traditions. Methods. The structural and functional approach was used as the methodological basis of the research, which made it possible to identify the main trends in the development of modern civilization, which actualize the need to form a culture-centered paradigm of education. The use of structural-functional and systemic approaches made it possible to identify the dialectical relationship between education, economy and quality of life. Results. The fourth industrial revolution, based on the digital economy, actualizes the problem of forming a new person. One of the mechanisms for solving this problem is education, the main development trends of which must meet the realities of our time. The main task of education is to prepare a person with creative thinking who has innovative professional competencies - the competencies of the XXI century. In connection with the above-mentioned modern trends, it is necessary to raise the question of the paradigm of education development. Each epoch in the history of mankind creates its own paradigms for the development of education. However, it should be borne in mind that different educational paradigms may exist in the same era, replacing each other. Conclusions. The analysis of existing paradigms allows the authors to prove that the basis of education in the era of the fourth industrial revolution should be a culture-centered paradigm as a reflection of various aspects of human life, which implements its content and functions in the "values-positions-knowledge-skills" scheme.

The emergence of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is distinguished by the utilization of new technologies and inventions such as the artificial intelligence, Internet of Things (IoT), automated machine, and so on. The use of these technologies alleviates many aspects of human life and brings massive changes to the human lifestyle. It has both positive and negative effects which then leads to new issues and challenges requiring evaluation from Shariah’s perspectivesThis paper aims to discuss Shariah’s perspective on the fourth industrial revolution and solutions to the arising issues from the maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah approach. The researcher adopts descriptive methodology to discuss the phenomenon and inductive methodology to resolve the issues in the light of Shariah. The paper concludes that Islam encourages knowledge development and invention as the term ‘ilm and related words, mentioned in the Qur’ān numerously as compared to other holy scriptures. However, any inventions must be consistent and in harmony with the objectives of Shariah and not conflicting with them. With the observation of conditions and guidelines as outlined in this paper, utilization of the inventions in the Fourth Industrial Revolution may serve as a mean to realize the objectives of Shariah and will greatly benefit humankind. In the event of any issues, solutions must be derived by exercising legal reasoning (ijtihād) with consideration of the modern sciences and contemporary context. The effort in renewing the legal reasoning (tajdīd) may be exercised in collective form by the experts in Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) and other sciences collaboratively.

Growing consumerism and population worldwide raises concerns about society’s sustainability aspirations. This has led to calls for concerted efforts to shift from the linear economy to a circular economy (CE), which are gaining momentum globally. CE approaches lead to a zero-waste scenario of economic growth and sustainable development. These approaches are based on semi-scientific and empirical concepts with technologies enabling 3Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle) and 6Rs (reuse, recycle, redesign, remanufacture, reduce, recover). Studies estimate that the transition to a CE would save the world in excess of a trillion dollars annually while creating new jobs, business opportunities and economic growth. The emerging industrial revolution will enhance the symbiotic pursuit of new technologies and CE to transform extant production systems and business models for sustainability. This article examines the trends, availability and readiness of fourth industrial revolution (4IR or industry 4.0) technologies (for example, Internet of Things [IoT], artificial intelligence [AI] and nanotechnology) to support and promote CE transitions within the higher education institutional context. Furthermore, it elucidates the role of universities as living laboratories for experimenting the utility of industry 4.0 technologies in driving the shift towards CE futures. The article concludes that universities should play a pivotal role in engendering CE transitions.

Standardization Process

The fourth industrial revolution is promoting the Operator 4.0 paradigm, originating from a renovated attention towards human factors, growingly involved in the design of modern, human-centered processes. New technologies, such as augmented reality or collaborative robotics are thus increasingly studied and progressively applied to solve the modern operators’ needs. Human-centered design approaches can help to identify user’s needs and functional requirements, solving usability issues, or reducing cognitive or physical stress. The paper reviews the recent literature on augmented reality-supported collaborative robotics from a human-centered perspective. To this end, the study analyzed 21 papers selected after a quality assessment procedure and remarks the poor adoption of user-centered approaches and methodologies to drive the development of human-centered augmented reality applications to promote an efficient collaboration between humans and robots. To remedy this deficiency, the paper ultimately proposes a structured framework driven by User eXperience approaches to design augmented reality interfaces by encompassing previous research works. Future developments are discussed, stimulating fruitful reflections and a decisive standardization process.

The digital revolution, also called the fourth industrial revolution, constitutes another era of change, caused by the development of computerisation and modern technologies. It is characterised by rapid technological progress, widespread digitisation and an impact on all areas of life, including the provision of work. The changes affecting this area are so significant that there are proposals to remodel the definition of the employment relationship in the Labour Code. New forms of employment, which do not fit the conventional definition of an employment relationship, are emerging and gaining importance. An example could be employment via digital platforms. At the same time, there are also employment forms that do fit that definition, but deviate from the conventional understanding of the terms and conditions for performing work, which have undergone modification due to the use of new technologies. Teleworking, or working outside the employer’s premises, are examples of that. Employers get further opportunities to organise and control work, which often raises concerns due to the employee’s right to privacy, the protection of personal rights and personal data.

Radical changes resulting from the Fourth Industrial Revolution strongly affect industrialized European countries. In particular, due to the new technologies that are characteristic of Industry 4.0, it will be essential for companies to make the necessary changes and achieve competitiveness through the implementation of these technologies. In order for companies to be able to make radical changes and innovations, they need to secure all the supporting areas in their organization. This research paper is focused on comparison of companies from Slovakia, Czech Republic, Austria, Germany and Switzerland in the context of readiness for Industry 4.0. This research was part of a research project, while data were collected in the period of 2015–2016. We have analysed companies from selected countries based on 7 areas which are closely interconnected with the business transformation and technology transformation coming from Industry 4.0. The main analysed questions focused on areas such as employee education and training, organizational culture, strategy, or organizational processes, that will be most affected by radical changes in the environment. Research has highlighted the differences between countries as a result of long-standing cultural differences, but at the same time identified the unified influence of the ongoing global debate on the need for technological innovation. With Slovak and Czech companies being below stronger innovators in the maturity of education systems, we strongly advise considering partnering in education which can bring valuable information to businesses that want to take on the wave of innovation.
