Sociologist as a Researcher and as an Educator

Rudi Supek ; Zagreb

Abstract

Science lost a lot of its charismatic role in the contemporary world. But the role of a social scientist is not less important as it was for example in the renaissance. The forces of the »scientific-military complex« today are so strong that we need to fight for the humanistic goals. The bureaucratic way of living is the right way for a limited man. The role of a sociologist and of sociology today is of great importance. Investigating the social world on a societal level a sociologist is trying to understand and explain the irrational forces which act against more human social world. But, to do that, a sociologist needs not only scientific curiosity but also a personal courage.
