This view is largely accredited because Pitt came into office in a difficult time but events around him seemed to benefit him rather well. Britain was entering the industrial revolution at the time, industry rose up and trade would boom due to expansion of the industries at home and abroad, the advancements of technology meant that Britain was going through a natural change that arguably Pitt was able to captain through leading to better fortunes. The natural opposition from the Whig party against the king led by Charles Fox meant that Pitt naturally had the Kings support against any opposition which could be thrown at him, the king would back him up. The American Revolution and his lack of connection to it meant that he was seen as a new politician not one of the previously failed governments who’s lack of control and rule in a situation. And lastly the regency crisis of 1788 meant that Pitt could use this to gain favour with the king and gather support from his own party and draw it away from the opposition.
In the era following the Civil War, Industrialization had many leaders. These leaders achieved the great growth of the economy and industry of the United Sates, leading the United States to become the leading industrial power in the world. Many historians question how honest these men were with their actions, we critique them because of the way they distributed their fortunes. It is true; many of these industrial leaders did cause harm socially, creating barriers and many competitions nationwide. They are called “industrial statesmen” for the great economic power they helped America become.
Considering the research that was conducted, as well as Colvin’s own observations, he has come to the conclusion that greatness is available to everyone. He states that “Scientific experts are producing remarkably consistent findings across a wide array of fields” which is what leads him to believe that the research being done is accurate, providing his philosophy to be true. He also makes examples of people who are very elite in their field of expertise, such as Warren Buffett, the world’s premier investor, and explains that the reason for his success may be better associated with the hours he spends studying financial statements of potential investment targets, rather than a natural ability to succeed as a CEO, despite the fact that Buffett strongly believes that his success is due to an ability that he was simply born with. In the article Colvin also states that a critical factor in becoming great in nearly any field would be deliberate practice. But what is deliberate practice?
for the better. At the start of his presidency he mainly focused on bigger businesses to stimulate the economy, but as time went on he found himself being driven to the center of need, the working class. The New Deal had many upsides but it had many failures too, with programs being unconstitutional and an absolute waste of American time. FDR’s presidency with always be noteworthy and held on a pedestal for all of the effort he put into changing the U.S.. The New Deal also changed the way the U.S. was took upon the role of president.
Not only was America prosperous, but they also were generous. America helped other nations rebuild their countries by funding the projects. In the post-war, America gave off an idealistic example of a leading nation. Its industrialization left it one of the leaders in military power, but they didn’t intend to use it for selfish reasons. Along with common weaponry, America possessed the knowledge of creating the most powerful weapon of all time, nuclear

Disregarding the heavy social costs of the Industrial Revolution, its material benefits outweighed them. This thesis will be defended by analyzing the benefits of the division of labor, how discipline in the factories allowed for successful industries, and most importantly the future technological advancements to create more efficient machinery. “The greatest improvement in the productive powers of Labour…seem to have been the effects of the division of labour” (The Division of Labor, 132). The division of labor played a role in the increase in mass production of goods by allowing different tasks to be completed concurrently. With the creation of the assembly line as well as the division of power, many workers would be able to complete a certain tasks simultaneously, thus increasing the production rate of goods and calling for a more efficient way to produce goods.
The Inevitability of Negative Consequences of the Industrial Revolution The perception of the industrial revolution as a key factor in changing the way of life is a fair statement. It is termed a “revolution” because the changes it produced were great and sudden. This revolution first appeared in Britain in the 1700s, fostering attitudes toward capitalism and modern industry everywhere. New traditions replaced old traditions, machinery replaced people, and people moved to urban cities from rural areas; simply, the way of life had been changed forever. The industrial revolution introduced mass production and greater markets.
Defining Modernism The critical analysis of artistic Modernism is made unpretentious when evaluating the piece Red Sun by Arthur G. Dove. In a world where so much is changing due to industrialization; it is obvious that noticeable changes where contagious throughout the arts. Modernism itself is a broad and imperceptible subject but when looked at closely, with its impact on art through the notorious Modernists, can be seen as a beautiful revolution. My thesis here is that although Modernism is seen to be difficult to define in technical terms as it is a compilation of styles which emerged from an era of industrialisation; it is easy to recognise Modernism art by its techniques; I will demonstrate this by highlighting the styles in Red Sun by Arthur G. Dove, 1935, and how they are considered “Modernism” The definition of modernism is challenging to pin down as it is very much based on perception; as people’s perceptions differ so too does the definition of modernism. As a broad description modernism describes to not only the style but the ideologies of art created between the 1860s and the 1970s.
Despres 1 Colton Despres Friday, April 11th, 2014 CHY4U Mrs. Primrose THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION Speaking from a historical context, the Industrial Revolution of the 19th century was easily one of the most progressive and materialistic events in history. And while the Industrial Revolution had substantial negative effects, for the most part these negative effects were justified by the overruling power of the positive aspects that are attributed to what is now known as the Industrial Revolution. All things considered, there were huge advantages to the evolutionary period of mechanization, travel, and economics that is directly the cause of a large percentage of the domestic and foreign materials that we possess today, all of which are more instrumental and positive to society and the world as a whole than detrimental and negative. Also, the outcomes/results of the Industrial Revolution were (in my opinion) positive, progressive, and essential to our modern way of living (Deane 4). Although there are many key elements of the rapid industrialization during the 19th century that aided in producing the outcomes (Urbanization, Social Classes/Living Conditions, Inventions), the most significant features that gave life to industrial and social progression were the introduction of mechanization, and the improvements made to transportation during the era of the Industrial Revolution.
