<![CDATA[This study examines how globalization-driven socio-economic shifts in 2024–2025 impact Social Science Education (IPS) in Indonesia. As the nation pursues "Golden Indonesia 2045," the acceleration of industrial downstreaming and the digital economy necessitates a globally competent citizenry.
