COMMUNITY PSYCHOLOGY

Human being as God’s creature also gives intelligence that makes them different from the others creatures. Civilization in human being currently is more advance compare hundreds years ago. This is caused by development of scientific to invent and expand new technology. All of that is not detached from the changing of community psychology.

Psychology is the mental characteristics or attitude of person. History of the changing of community psychology already noted that it usually be triggered by someone who has extreme perspective against old values. European undergoes this period since Copernicus opposes catholic church’s teach that “Earth is center of solar system” or called it as “Geocentric Theory”. He express his idea that “The Sun is center of solar system” or as known as “Heliocentric Theory”. Every extreme perspective always gets contrary from conservative people. It is also experienced by Copernicus that he is punished death by them. This tragedy is known as Renaissance.

But a new perspective inspires many people in the world to approve that, sometimes it needs teens years even hundreds year to them to understand or believe it. As Newton law gives a basic character of matter that fist law said: matter will continues move or steady motionless if there is no force on it. It is the same with human psychology that they will retain what already been since there is no something which force them to change it.

While third’s Newton law said: if matter A give a force to matter B as big F, so matter B will react to matter A with equal force as big F too. This law appropriates with Copernicus story above. Advance technology as can be seen now, is not peeled from the second’s Newton law that said: matter will move in certain acceleration if there is force work on it. There are four things that force human to make acceleration: first, overcome problems, second, look for the truth, third, look for the easy ways, and four, competition. What make acceleration from Copernicus story is looking for the truth. This story also inspires a lot of people in west world to find out more the truth that propel the advance of science.

Community psychology will change after some periods. How the change is actually appear on the trend or focus that most people think at that periods. Renaissance affects to people perspective about life. They tend to glorify matter in any aspect of life even they courage to belittle religions teach and deify sciences. Currently, the country that advances in science and technology dominates the alteration of community psychology.
