Explain the extent to which industrialization brought change from 1750 to 1900

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Industrialization has knit the world together -not just in having wrought profound technological change, but also in the consequences, both economic and social, of that change. Industrialization allowed for the mechanization of Euro-American societies and the mass production of commodities and finished goods. At the same time, industrialization facilitated the destruction of local environments all over the world with pollution and resource depletion. Industrialization also provided the means by which Europeans, Americans, and the Japanese dominated cultures and societies around the globe through both formal and informal imperialism. As a result, the "progress" of the nineteenth century should be viewed globally, with truly global consequences that still challenge the planet and its peoples.

The humanists of the Renaissance were concerned with a question that would you answer this same question ? What's the good life

maw [93]

Explanation:

The idea that becoming rich defines whether we have a good life is not true; becomes often times the happiness one gets from things they owned is short-lived.

For many today including me, our definition of a good life has changed as a result of our experiences in life. Simply knowing you are loved and have loved ones makes many of us happy, and there is this good feeling that sets in when you help others even in little ways.

So in a sense, what we define as a good life is subjective (coming from within), and it should be based on how we really feel on the inside, by asking; Do I feel good on the inside?
