W3. Social development theory / Lee Se Hyun

Summary

Social development theory explains the changes in society. There is a change at the macro and micro level. This article is a macroscopic social change. Development generally means economic development. But it is also used in politics, society and technology. There are various kinds of development. It is unconsistent vs. These are the complex development, Role of Pioneering Industries, Imitation of the Pioneer, Organization of New Activities, Organization Matures into Operation, Cultural Transmission by the Family.
The means to continuously promote various kinds of development is education. Education has the purpose of conveying the collective knowledge of a society to the next generation. This accumulation of knowledge creates new challenges. This is directly linked to development.


It depends on the social organization to be developed. For example, Galileo's telescope was perceived as a demon's tool because of religious doctrines, and a lot of development emerged when it was liberated from religious doctrines. Development doesn't come suddenly. The social situation has a lot of influence. There are three stages of development. There is a physical stage characterized by the dominance of physical elements of human nature, a virtual stage in which dynamism and change are injected and development is greatly expanded, and a mental stage in which the power of ideas that change social life is increased, not just in promoting innovation in technology and organization. It goes up in the order of the stage, virtual stage, and mental stage.

Interesting point

It was interesting that the social situation affected development. It is impressive that even innovative technology development cannot emerge if society does not support it at that time. This article reminded me of Korea. Korea boasts a high level of education on average. In other words, it means that the accumulation of knowledge that can promote the development of the next generation is going well. It is highly likely that innovative development ideas will emerge through this. However, Korea is in the opposite situation with Silicon Valley in the U.S. Due to realistic constraints, it is difficult to realize an idea. It is the opposite of Silicon Valley, which has many opportunities to realize ideas. For this reason, it was interesting that the social situation affected development.

Question

I think government support is needed for Korea to become like Silicon Valley in the U.S. In what direction should government support go?
