One example of how technology has caused social change includes the creation of the assembly line and interchangeable parts. The assembly line and interchangeable parts resulted in the ability of businesses all over the world to mass produce items. In order to mass produce items, businesses need unskilled workers to be able to repeat tasks constantly within a work day. This caused an increase in the demand for unskilled workers.
This demand for unskilled workers provided millions of job opportunities for immigrants coming into the US, especially during the late 19th and early 20th century. Along with this, the development of the assembly line and interchangeable parts indirectly leads to urbanization. This was a massive movement of families from the countryside to the city in order to seek new job opportunities as factories.
The two main resources that people are in conflict over are oil and water.
Water is an important resource in the Middle East because of how limited it is. Most of the region is dry. Conflicts occurred when countries are using more than their share of the water resources.
It shows us that in the medical times the churches held most power as the people were very religious this is important because it emphasise the political control to be by a church not democracy???
