Economic Crisis and Its Social Consequences

Summary/Abstract: The economic crisis has caused deep social changes which are reflected to a higher extent in underdeveloped countries where authorities are not able to program the processes in the right direction. The crisis is reflected in many ways and is seen in all spheres of the society, especially social. Economic measures are only the basis of serious measures that need to be implemented in all sectors of the society, especially social. That is why the meaning of social capital is greater and more important, for it is at the disposal of citizens and is not controlled by the powerful international institutions. In order to overcome the crisis, it is necessary to undergo reforms of economic, educational and the overall social sector controlled by the domestic authorities. The crisis is global, but it is reflected locally. Citizens suffer the consequences, depending on the economic power and financial situation in a country. Today, many theoreticians deal with the issue of overcoming the crisis, but the basic measures should be taken in the sector of education, employment and social care system. The country should redefine its social policy and social protection measures, program and initiate the development of educational system and undertake more serious investments not only in the sector of production, but also in the sector of science and progress. The proclaimed Bologna education reform does not even remotely offer, nor does it suit the needs of time and demands that the crisis poses in the sector of education. That is why voices calling for a new approach to education are becoming louder.
