AS A CONDITION OF
MODERN LIFE
The achievements of human beings in
the modern age provide
unprecedented opportunities for
human welfare and fulfillment, but
they also have placed in the hands of
humanity instruments of universal
destruction (Pettman, 2012).
A. New Knowledge

ignorance is vice”

evil

- Common people (artisan class), Soldiers
(warriors), the guardians (rulers) and have
political power
- increased integration of policy making
- transportation, communication, business
have tended to become larger and centralized
C. Economic Sphere

D. Social Realm
Traditional societies are typically
closed and rigid in their structure. The
members of such societies are primarily
peasants living in relatively isolated
villages, poor and illiterate, and having
little contact with the central political
authorities
Modernization
Complex and interrelated
series of changes in humanity’s
way of life. It has changed the
power relationships among
others.
E. Technology

consider and evaluate the standards
employed in the choice and
implementation of scientific research
and technological development in
relation to the aspirations of the people .
F. On (Women’s) Friendships
Carol (2006) – The Fabric of Friendship
– discusses the quality of
friendships between women
True Friend – allows each other to be completely
themselves; accepting who they are
is the initial goal and being to give
acceptance and opportunity to your
experience
Miss “Not Always Broken”
– women initially deny their
attitude toward other women ,
such as subjecting them to
disrespect

SOCIAL SYSTEMS
7.4 AND HOW SOCIETIES TRANSFORM
INDIVIDUAL
HUMAN BEINGS
• Goldin & Reinert (2012)
• liberator
• Heidegger (1977)
• Borgmann (1992)
• 2 factors that affect our
situation
• Traditional practices are
fast disappearing.
• Technological change
• Technological future is
not predetermined.
• In every change in society, everyone has
their own perspectives, positions, and
attitudes towards it. An example is
globalization, other people see it as a
beneficial process for everyone but some
people consider it as a regretful , eroding
national sovereignty, destroying local culture,
and marginalizing much of the world’s
population.
