MODERN PARADIGM: EMPIRISM, RATIONALISM, AND POSITIVISM
Modern paradigms in science are the result of a long evolution of philosophical thought rooted in the classical debate between empiricism, rationalism, and positivism. This article examines these three paradigms in depth by reviewing their epistemological foundations, key figures, and their implications for the development of modern science. Through a literature review approach, this article explores the contributions of philosophers such as John Locke, René Descartes, David Hume, Auguste Comte, and Karl Popper. The study shows that empiricism emphasizes sensory experience as the primary source of knowledge; rationalism relies on reason as the basis of universal truth; while positivism places empirical verification and the scientific method as the measure of scientific truth. These three paradigms complement each other in forming the foundation of modern scientific methodology. The integration of rationality and empirical experience results in a more comprehensive scientific approach. Thus, the modern paradigm is no longer monolithic, but rather open and dynamic to epistemological plurality

THE ROLE OF ISLAMIC EDUCATION IN ADVANCING SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION THROUGH CHARACTER STRENGTHENING AND COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT
In the era of globalization and digitalization, society faces serious challenges in the form of moral degradation, identity crises, and weak social solidarity due to the dominance of materialistic values. In addition, many Islamic educational institutions, especially Islamic boarding schools, still lack development in the areas of economics and life skills for students, so they have not been able to play an optimal role in promoting community independence and social transformation. In fact, Islamic education should ideally function not only as a moral fortress, but also as a means of empowering the community based on spiritual and social values. This study aims to analyze the role of Islamic education in promoting social transformation through character building and community empowerment. The research was conducted at the An-Nur Malangbong Garut Foundation, an Islamic educational institution that integrates formal education, Islamic boarding school curriculum, and productive economic activities based on Islamic values. A qualitative approach was used with a case study method, through interviews, observation, and documentation. The results show that Islamic education at the An-Nur Foundation plays a strategic role in shaping the character of a transformative generation through the internalization of Islamic values, the integration of the national and pesantren curricula, and the implementation of life skills and entrepreneurship programs. Managerially, the institution applies a participatory management pattern that involves teachers, students, and the community in every stage of program planning and evaluation. This strategy not only strengthens the religious and social character of students, but also increases economic independence and community participation in religious and social activities. This study confirms that Islamic education that is managed in a participatory manner and based on community empowerment can be a driving force for sustainable social transformation in the modern era
Integrating Business-Level Strategy Concepts in Strategic Management to Strengthen Quality in Islamic Boarding Schools
This study aims to analyze the integration of the Business-Level Strategy concept in strategic management to strengthen the quality of education in Islamic boarding schools. In the context of increasingly complex competition and changes in the educational environment, the implementation of business strategies in Islamic-based institutions is a crucial need to maintain the relevance, quality, and sustainability of Islamic boarding schools. This study uses a qualitative method with a case study approach in several Islamic boarding schools that have implemented modern managerial strategies. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, then analyzed using data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing techniques. The results show that the integration of Business-Level Strategy through the differentiation of educational services, efficient resource management, and strengthening spiritual values can significantly improve the quality of the institution. This strategy encourages Islamic boarding schools to be more adaptive to community needs, enhances management professionalism, and strengthens a competitive Islamic identity. The implications of this study indicate that the implementation of Business-Level Strategy not only strengthens the institution's competitiveness but can also be used as a model for developing sustainable and Islamic-characterized Islamic boarding school strategic management

Using a qualitative approach of a case study, this study explores the strategies, dynamics, and impact of leadership on institutional change. Data was collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and analysis of institutional documents. The results of the study show that the head of the pesantren plays a key role as an agent of change through three main approaches: (1) digitalization-based structure and management, (2) strengthening human resources through the ustaz regeneration system and continuous evaluation, and (3) internalizing the Islamic values of Aswaja into the professional work practices of students and staff. These three aspects encourage the formation of a collaborative, accountable, and quality-oriented work culture. This research confirms that transformational leadership is not only effective in the context of modern management, but also able to adapt to the religious values of Islamic boarding schools. The practical implication of this research is the need to develop a value-based and innovative leadership model in Islamic educational institutions, which emphasizes not only spiritual attainment but also institutional effectiveness professionally
