Social transformations of the twentieth century

Abstract

This article suggests analysis of the main development trends of our societies. We should understand that now we live in the situation, which cannot be compared to the period, when economical factors led to beginning of social conflicts and creating mechanisms of their institutionalization. The fact that social-democratic model is not relevant to the modern realities is understood even by people, who supported it and hoped to transform it into another form. In this article we will consider this situation in order to understand these trends and see, how we can determine it.
