Cultural Trends In Development Of Science And Technology In Indonesia And The Role Of Philosophy To Overcome It (Pancasila In Action)

Indonesian society is currently experiencing a cultural shift as an influence of the development of modern science and technology. The aim of this study reveals the phenomenon of cultural shifting of Indonesian society and to build a philosophical strategy to overcome the problem. Through qualitative descriptive explorations a posteriori method can identify and describe the symptoms of cultural change of society, to obtain a map of changes in socio-cultural values of the community. The philosophical synthetic heuristic method helps to show how the quality and relation of the object must be sought, giving way to the reconstruction of the basic frameworks of the existence of science. The results show that the development of science and technology today, on the one hand has facilitated the various needs of human life, but on the other hand has a negative impact on changes in thinking patterns, attitude and behavior of people who tend towards the development of practical, pragmatic and hedonistic . This problem arises because the development of science and technology increasingly separated from the basic framework of the existence of science, namely; ontology, epistemology and axiology. The development of science and technology needs to be directed back to the development model that puts Pancasila as the vision and orientation of strengthening the basic framework of the existence of science as a whole
