The aim of the article is to discuss the issue of academic revolution in India. Particularly since the globalization, this revolotion is marked by transformation unprecedented in scope and diversity and education particularly higher education is profoundly influenced by the new order. However, it remains unfinished task due adequate statutory support of the government. In Indian context the national aspirations, to establish knowledge society in the context of increasing globalization, is based on the assumption that higher and technical education essentially empower people with requisite competitive skills and knowledge. The emerging trends demonstrate consumer driven approach to enhance marginal capital gains in educational investment. The higher education being a powerful tool to build knowledge based society and also a critical input underlying sustainable development has received a significant attention nowadays.

Global social order calls for more and more knowledge of applicable character. As a result, medicine developed certain procedures known as evidence-based research and evidence-based practice. Both procedures are promoted with great intensity in the domain of social sciences. The article demonstrates that such a type of modernisation may pose a threat to social sciences and their development. An alternative model of conducting research in the field of social sciences has been presented, which would guarantee an increase in the regulatory scientific knowledge in relation to the practice and which, at the same time, would protect social sciences against excessive political and economic interference in its further development.

In this article, I pose the question of the role of academic education in social reality marked by the logic of corporate system, which is a product of neoliberal culture. Herein, I argue that the instrumentalization of the role of both the university and its mission — as woven into a discourse of knowledge society, which constitutes the official interpretation of the EU's position towards the goals of education, including academic education — is accompanied by contemporary practices of subjectification (assujettissment) of students as subjects of academic education. These practices are related to imposed forms of establishing, accomplishing and verifying educational goals in academic education (i.e. learning outcomes) and they lead to construing of submissive forms of identities of students.

Artykuł jest próbą zarysu nowego znaczenia informacji w dzisiejszym świecie. Spektakularny wzrost znaczenia informacji i technologii komunikacyjnych w ostatnich latach zmienia sposób postrzegania współczesnego społeczeństwa. Obecnie stajemy się świadkami historycznej przemiany, gdzie społeczeństwo industrialne staje się społeczeństwem informacyjnym. Siłą dzisiaj jest informacja. Nie jest ona zależna ani od warunków geograficznych, ani od innych podobnych cech. Sukces społeczeństw zależy od zdolności tworzenia, zarządzania i gromadzenia informacji. Informacja jest główną wartością na świecie.

This article is a selective introduction to the description and characterization of the changes that have occurred in the sociology of knowledge since the publication of Max Scheler’s book in 1924 to contemporary times, most often conceptualized by the term knowledge society. A brief review of the main threads in the field of sociology of knowledge was intended to draw attention to the theoretical and practical advantages of particular approaches, as well as their disadvantages, resulting in a trivial study of the phenomenon of knowledge in question. The descriptive character of this article also allowed for a number of systematizations within specific approaches (e.g. Michel Foucault) and within a broad perspective of the knowledge phenomenon.

Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to investigate the circulation of knowledge in public discourse. Two models of circulation, which could be called the ‘popularization’ and ‘populization’ of knowledge, are discussed. The first is identified with the traditional activity of academic elites and usually involves informing the general public about scientific discoveries and translating hermetic academic jargon into language accessible to a wider audience. The second attempts to describe the process whereby the dominant administrators of scientific knowledge lose their monopoly position. An especially valuable proposal for describing ‘popularization’ and ‘populization’ is the category of ‘de-distantiation’ (the reduction and weakening of distances in social relations) invented by Karl Mannheim. The circulation of knowledge is also considered as an important component of modernization and anti-modernization discourse.

Abstract The article aims to introduce the community school as one of the possible models for the predicted development of schooling in today's knowledge society. Contrasting with its applications in the UK and US, the paper showcases current developments in the community school concept in the Czech Republic, reflecting on the position of the community school in contemporary specialist discourse. There is an overview of select research into community schools, the types of community schools in the UK, US and the Czech Republic (where the concept has only been applied since the 1990s in its present form), complemented by an analysis of the community school concept as a whole with particular attention paid to its internal coherence and diversity. Community school standards are outlined to provide additional background. The methodology of the article is grounded in the theoretical analysis of specialist literature, relevant projects, and other sources.

Książka zaprezentowana w tekście jawi się jako efekt imponującej pracy archiwizacyjnej jej autora, który zgromadził dużą liczbę informacji na temat przekształceń szkolnictwa wyższego w krajach nordyckich. Społeczeństwo wiedzy, produkcja niematerialna i nowe publiczne zarządzanie budują ramę interpretacyjną dla zgromadzonych faktów. Chociaż autor książki wzbogacił wiedzę czytelnika, nie dość wyraźnie i zdecydowanie zaprezentował swój punkt widzenia. Brakuje krytycznej analizy czy autorskiego komentarza.

The book presented in the text is the result of an impressive work of archiving facts on higher education in Nordic countries. Knowledge society, nonmaterial production and new public management built the frame of interpretation of the facts. Even though the author of the book enriched readers’ knowledge, he do not strongly enough presents his own point of view. There is lack of critics and deep author’s comments on presented facts.

Tekst jest próbą zajęcia stanowiska w dyskursie nad wiedzą „subiektywną, ukrytą, proceduralną, milczącą” w dyskusji nad pojęciem społeczeństwa wiedzy. W tekście wyodrębniono i scharakteryzowano trzy etapy dyskusji na temat społeczeństwa wiedzy, dochodząc do konkluzji, że współcześnie brakuje w niej konkretów, mamy do czynienia z kalkami pojęciowymi, licznymi uproszczeniami, rozmyciem znaczenia i granic tego pojęcia, co prowadzi do nieuzasadnionego i bezrefleksyjnego używania pojęcia społeczeństwa wiedzy i w efekcie do jego dewaluacji. W opinii Autorki podtrzymanie i kontynuowanie dyskusji o społeczeństwie wiedzy czy uczenia się leży w interesie pedagogów i pedagogiki, ponieważ to uzasadnia nasze (nauk o wychowaniu) bycie w dyskursie publicznym, ale tę dyskusję trzeba wypełnić merytorycznymi treściami, a nie hasłami i sloganami. W tym celu w drugiej części artykułu zaprezentowane zostały wyniki badań Chriastine Hof nad subiektywnymi koncepcjami wiedzy andragogów w Niemczech. Na podstawie badań wyróżniono i scharakteryzowano trzy typy subiektywnych wyobrażeń andragogów o naturze wiedzy oraz różne strategie zdobywania i prezentacji wiedzy, jak i wzajemne relacje między nimi. Rozpoznania te można przenieść na grunt społeczeństwa wiedzy, którego obywatele mają większą świadomość pełnienia roli nauczyciela w różnych kontekstach: w domu, pracy, czasie wolnym.

The text is an attempt to form an opinion in the discourse on „subjective, hidden, procedural, silent” knowledge, which is part of the discussion on the definition of a knowledge society. The text distinguishes and characterises three stages of the aforementioned discussion and comes to the conclusion that currently it lacks facts, one deals with calques, various simplifications, the blurring of the meaning and limits of this term, which leads to the phrase „knowledge society” being used in a way that is unjustified and devoid of thought, and in effect to its loss of value. In the opinion of the Author, maintaining and continuing this discussion on the knowledge society and learning is in the best interest of pedagogues and pedagogy, as it justifies our (sciences devoted to learning) existence in public discourse. However, the discussion should center around substantive content and not slogans. With this in mind the results of studies carried out by Chriastine Hof on the subjective concepts of andragogues’ knowledge in Germany have been presented. On basis of these studies three types of subjective andragogue’s visions on the nature of knowledge, different strategies for acquiring and presenting it, as well as the relations between them, have been presented. They can be carried over to the issue of the knowledge society, whose citizens have a stronger awareness of their teacher’s role in various contexts: at home, work and in their free time.

The pace of the dynamics of changes in various types of societies depended on many aspects and external factors. In some regions or even cultures, it happened faster, and in others it was slower. The changing economic situation, the methods of producing new products, the means of transmitting information, politics and even religion – they all had to adapt in some way. Therefore, it is necessary to trace selected business cycles occurring in our civilization, and at the same time analyze the causative factors of mental changes in order to try to understand social behavior during a pandemic and to make a possible anticipation.

Currently we can observe a growing impact of the idea of knowledge society on social and educational policy of European Union countries. Particularly, this involves an economical perspective on social, civil, and educational issues. The paper presents considerations on the epistemological bases of knowledge society as well as their consequences for conceptualising the idea of „education for knowledge society”. It is argued, that the essential meaning of knowledge, which forms the basis for educational policy emerging form the idea of knowledge society, comes down to a dehumanized concept of knowledge without its subject.

Współcześnie obserwujemy rosnące znaczenie idei społeczeństwa wiedzy na politykę społeczną (w tym edukacyjną) państw Unii Europejskiej. W sposób szczególny zaznacza się w tym obszarze nacisk na przyjęcie ekonomicznej perspektywy dla analizowania, przewidywania i projektowania zjawisk społecznych i edukacyjnych, a także sfery aktywności obywatelskiej. Artykuł przedstawia rozważania nad epistemologicznym kontekstem koncepcji społeczeństwa wiedzy, a także jego konsekwencjami dla konceptualizacji idei edukacji dla społeczeństwa wiedzy. Przeprowadzona analiza głosi tezę, że podstawowe znaczenie pojęcia wiedzy, które wyłania się z idei społeczeństwa wiedzy, odnosi się do jej redukcjonistycznego pojmowania jako wiedzy bez podmiotu.

Participation in adult education and training (AET) is one of the primary strategies of the European Commission for developing human capital and retaining a competitive labour force. AET is also regarded as a means to tackle educational inequality as it can provide a second chance at gaining qualifications or job-related skills. This study uses data from three rounds of the Adult Education Survey (AES) involving a total of 25,405 respondents to investigate empirically the changes in the participation of adults (ages 25 to 64) in AET in the Czech Republic (CZE). Building on the study by Simonová and Hamplová (2016), this article aims to show how participation in AET, as measured by the AES, evolved in the CZE from 2011 to 2022, and which educational, age, and socioeconomic groups had the greatest likelihood of engaging in AET. The study tests two competing hypotheses regarding inequality in AET participation: (1) the persistence of key sources of inequality and (2) the partial democratisation thesis, i.e., the gradual reduction of some factors of inequality. To test these hypotheses, the two types of AET in which adults in the CZE are most involved were selected: non-formal education (NFE) and employer-supported job-related NFE. The results of the empirical analysis indicate that AET participation has stagnated over the past decade, with more than half of the population not regularly engaging in AET annually. Using multinomial logistic regression (MLR), the study demonstrates that, although significant inequalities based on educational attainment, economic activity, age, and socioeconomic status are still evident, these inequalities have been weakening since 2011. This trend has occurred through a two-phase democratisation of participation, which exhibited different characteristics in 2016 and 2022.

The contemporary university – as any other educational, social, business, or government institution – functions in condition of what David Harvey has called time-space compression: everything is happening here without distances, differences or frontiers; and everything is happening now without past or future. The very structure of the knowledge has changed: it has become complex, interdisciplinary, rather problem-based than discipline-based. Purely intellectual knowledge is no longer relevant; its true value is determined by its potential for commercial application. Besides, with constant advent of new technologies, both knowledge and skills turn obsolete in no time. Thus, the university must equip learners with tools, strategies and resources which would allow them to independently upgrade their knowledge and skills whenever demanded throughout their after-university professional or academic careers. In the present article, I outline new literacies essential for a learner to study in a technology-enhanced global classroom, and review the potential of the new technology for education. I then consider constructing Personal Learning Environments (PLEs) as a means to individualize and support learning in different contexts. Having gained attention of educators since 2004, PLE represents an evolving trend in sustainable education due to its potential to let learners create their own educational spaces in order to direct their own learning, to pursue individual educational goals, and to expand learning far beyond the classroom.
