Structure of its Society Society structure of this New Humankind also would follow to change, they would make a relationship in a community that it can be called as a “social contract”. Kinship and religion are not more need. Society norms are not more established with the based on the kinship and religion. But it would be structured with the based on enjoyment/gain materiality that now humankind can be enjoyed. Family is not more a main priority, the consumerism life style and modern hedonism have removed it. It made the relationship between the parents and children become the “investment” relationship. Because the relationship model is an investment, so it is not seldom that the child is sacrificed for the interest of the investor. The sacrifice could be seen from communication, warmth of relation, to the parents sell a child or to be a victim. The parents consider the child as “a capital or an investment”, if it is need, and then it is ready to exchange for money. When the families, which is a smallest structure in the society, have changed as such, so what would be happen with the society? The society would change, to see all anything with the eyes glass of money/capital. All anything would be measured in the based on money values, thereafter in the society of new humankind there is no more a solidarity, social work, and a social relations. The social relations would be ruined, they would be substituted by individualism and the wild wood law reapplied, “who has a power, he/she is the winner”.
Its Economic They used the capitalism economic system, why capitalism? Because the capitalism is suitable to the new civilization for the New variety. Why? Because one of powers in the capitalism is to search the profit, regardless the traditional values. The attitude of capitalists struggle to reach the profit, they removed all constraints that they come from the humanity senses because they weaken the efforts to reach the profit. That is why, the labours are became the production – cools, according to Marx in Frederick Engels, the labours must struggle as a human being who have an other activity beside work, sleeping and eating.[4] In the society of New variety, such that economic systems that must be used. If not, they are not more the super humankind, Homo Ingenium Praeter Impius. Cause they have to posses the strong economy, if they want to substitute the first variety of humankind, that is traditional humankind. With their economic power, they would able to change the world order in conformance with their isms. Systems of capitalists economic have dominated the Western, and it extended to Asia. In Indonesia, in simpler forms, they could be seen on the people who open the boarding houses, they are not thinking the moral aspects. A man or woman, who live in the boarding house, can bring his or her girl or boy friend or darling to the boarding house without the owner of boarding house questioned. Because the important for the owner of boarding house is the profit that they would receive from the boarding house.
Education as a processing kitchen A theologies whose name is Gresham Machen pointed out, if the world is a restaurant in which served a various of menu – ideas of philosophy with majority oppose the God, and then the university become its kitchen. Lecture rooms become a place in which the world view is cocked up to mature. From this opinion it could be understood that the education in universities are a processing kitchen in which is produced this the New variety so that they have a world view such as they have above. Education approach, it is existing today in the universities, have changed significantly, as it before still referred to doctrine or authority of religion in approach to develop the knowledge, change toward the approach with based on an empirical knowledge only or more proper the positive knowledge with reference to the freedom of thinking. A know ledge can not receive the existence of metaphysic knowledge and is not restricted by the religion values. Why the approach with reference to the religion doctrine/authority was left? Because there is unsatisfied on the behaviour of that doctrine it self which cannot be questioned, improved, or refused so that it opposed on the knowledge nature which always emerge a new knowledge and new meaning about the life. And that’s right the doctrine has nature as such, as Edgar Morin pointed out that doctrines are the closed theories with absolutely believe for its truth and immune for all criticism that show its fallacy.[5] |
