Abstract

This article attempts to discuss the role of moral values in the era of the fourth industrial revolution. The industrial revolution will decrease man’s involvement in workplaces. The production number increased significantly, but job opening dropped that might cause fewer people to work. As we know, those who live in industrialized countries are very busy and disciplined particularly in running their activities. They have never thought about religious aspects and moral values. They only think about how much can be earned from their job and how to rise-up the production. This is the warmest issues which spread all over the world nowadays, and nobody can escape from that. On the one hand, industry 4.0 will need a skilled man to operate internet or machine to create efficiency and more production, and such circumstances will change people's paradigm. On the other hand, religious teachings should not be underrated because it is a necessary way to strengthen and defend moral values among people. These are two different things that are occurring at the same time, and therefore research which is related to the issues should be done. This study was done qualitatively, and data were collected through a single method---interview. The aims of the study are to find out whether moral values can save people from the influence of the fourth industrial revolution, whether people are pleased only by fulfilling their materialistic needs, and whether the national education curriculum related to moral values need to be changed in accordance with this modern era (industry 4.0).
