Summary/Abstract: According to Prof. Zygmunt Bauman, the first and fundamental step towards a new social order should be instilling the public belief that the status quo can be negated. He highlights the lack of new ideas, not even any sense of direction when it comes to a search for new paradigms. He makes the public realize that the contemporary socialist thought is to advance further towards new horizons, the ones that remove restrictions which were imposed to counterculture by socialist capitalist era. Bauman considers the issue of finding answers to the following questions to be the most important challenge of the twenty-first century: where to get a new, better multiplanetary principles of social life that could be widely accepted and respected? Where to find their creators and implementors, those who know how to introduce the new creed to guide the humanity? Hypothesis that Bauman puts, is the claim that the future of socialism would be decided upon a cultural level. He puts an emphasis not so much on a formal change of ownership, but on new culture and new philosophy with different patterns of relationships
