This article presents introductory considerations on a sociological outside description of the educational system. After this particular form of a sociological perspective has been determined, which, unlike pedagogical research, does not necessarily depend on the fact that its observations in the educational system can be connected, this distanced form of observation is shown by three examples: the question of the form of the educational system and its boundaries, the significance of the system for the inequality structure of modern society, and finally the form of uncertain action in educational processes.

教育系统的社会学观察：系统理论的视角

本文介绍了对教育系统的社会学外部描述的介绍性考虑。在确定了社会学观点的这种特殊形式之后，与教育学研究不同的是，它不一定依赖于其在教育系统中的观察结果可以相互联系的事实，这种遥远的观察形式可以通过三个例子来说明：教育制度的形式及其边界，制度对现代社会不平等结构的意义，最后是教育过程中不确定行为的形式。
