Firstly, the advancement of technology was a big step in rise of towns. When we refer to technology we refer especially to agricultural progressions. That is to say, farmers were able to produce more in less time then before. A few advancements allowed this progression. One of them could be the replacement of oxen by horses for plowing (horses pulled the plow faster).
People deal with agriculture but “although they worked hard to ensure their subsistence, they had little desire to create a surplus” (121.KGO'B.vol II.Ch 21.Industrial Europe p: 674). So they made a big effort but they didn’t receive recompense for one’s work enough. However, after the industrial revolution thanks to machine people started to make little effort and create more surpluses so it leads to increasing surplus and more raw materials required. To my way of thinking political changes are affected by industrial revolution. For example, imperialism and quest for raw materials had a
The Amish primarily grow vegetable crops such as potatoes, celery, corn, and beets; some Amish even have grapevines and fruit trees on their property. This is essential to their community because they can grow their goods to sustain their families
However during industrialization it brought about a lot of change. The workforce changed resulting in family farming becoming factory working. Moreover, during industrialization machinery took over farming resulting in the farmers no longer needing extra help. This resulted in towns and cities expanding to hold the capacity and many people moving into the cities and towns for factory work. Parsons argues that industrialization led to the nuclear family being very isolated, as the family lost some functions, such as the relationship now between the extended family was down to choice and not duty.
Expansion affected the nation in many ways other than size. It also affected our country's population, culture, economy and social structure. America's economy was the first to experience the effects of Westward expansion. Most of the settlers that moved out west were planning on becoming farmers, if they were not already farmers. Along with new farmers came new products that the United States (US) could ship out to other countries as a profit.
In order to achieve this a production revolution of sorts took place in many advanced economies, countries shifted from Fordism to Post-Fordism. Fordism was based upon Henry Ford's use of production lines and mass production. This model de-skilled the workers involved and made flexibility on the production lines difficult. During the early 1960's a larger range of products were being demanded which meant that companies were losing profits as they could not keep up with demand due to the inflexible production process. The changes which came with the adoption of Post-Fordism were largely implemented to increase flexibility on the production line and consequently boost profits, as Mitchell stated “Post-Fordism has been portrayed as a
However, due to the Industrial Revolution, America began to stray from the vision the founding fathers had for the nation in the late 1700’s and 1800’s. Though social mobility was promised to immigrants and common Americans, these same people were often exploited and left in poverty. Founding fathers, such as Thomas Jefferson, valued farming above all else, but as industrialism took hold of America, farming became much necessary, and farmers more scarce. Finally, though America’s politicians promised to hear what the common people had to say, during and after the Industrial Revolution it seemed that only the very wealthy could make any sort of impact, and there was nothing to stop them from crushing the working class underfoot. The United States of America was built on the ideal that every man should be able to make his way in the world regardless of his family or class.
Rawtopia is the topia. Sir Thomas Mores Utopia and Rawtopia have several similarities .Such as the use of farmers and farming w the crops ,wood,and food and other useful things that people want or need in there everyday lives. Also another simalarity is trade and having everyone work in the society to keep eachother alive coltavating the foods. Finally the use of the same pattern clothes for everyone. We also have our differences like our government, schools and money use.
At the beginning, their focus was raising sheep and goats; they later incorporated horses that were used to direct their flock to new grazing areas. The horses where also used to help them hunt for food and a means of commerce. Their agriculture consisted of harvesting beans, squash, corn, and tobacco. As time passed, they instill the weaving, jewelry, and their means of self-sufficiency. Due to their mode of subsistence, the Navajos lived within small groups.
Elizabeth Bott conducted a lot of research into conjugal roles and came up with the term ‘joint conjugal role’ which means that the couple share the housework and the childcare. This type of relationship has become much more common since the 1970’s, this suggests that there is more equality between men and women in domestic labour and gender roles. Controversially, Bott discussed segregated conjugal roles, the ‘instrumental role’ played by the man, meaning he provides for the family by going to work whilst the women play the ‘expressive role’ meaning that they cook, clean and look after the
