Social development, social change and dynamic are differently perceived by various authors. Their perception and thoughts depend on the approach to them. Though the most clear to us is the social development conception. In the modern world we can see a cleavage between the modern and classical approach, though the line between post-modernity and modernity stays fully undefined. Modern social development can be considered as infringement of existing behaviour traditions and criticism or attitude on them, which is reflected by rational actions. Therefore in the modern society we can see a permanent transition from behaviour traditions through changes to the future, which we can define as a system, but not a generality. Social change might be estimated describing eight groups of indicators, which we can find in works of different scholars. Those groups of indicators are the following: social structure, production power, infrastructure, enterprise, global communication, political structure (democracy), urbanization, territorial hierarchical structure.
