Focus question: In what ways were American Revolution, French revolution and 17th century British Revolutions alike? In what ways were they different? AOI: Community and Service (I’ve chosen C&S as my AOI because in this essay I am going to talk about the differences and similarities between French and American Revolution and the difference is mostly based on the way community represented it.) The enlightenment on revolutions in 18th century was a move in European and American philosophy in 18th century.

He analyzes each revolution as well as its direct impacts on a variety of topics, including science, the arts, and religion. Hobsbawm asserts that the events that took place were only the natural progression of the conditions that existed, that the revolts were the next logical step. He goes as far to claim that “rebellion was not merely possible, but virtually compulsory.” Though an exact date is difficult to pinpoint, Hobsbawm states that the industrial revolution in Britain can be traced back to the 1780s, just prior to the French Revolution. He argues that in order for an industrial revolution to be successful, there are two criteria that need to be met. First, there needed to exist an industry that proved to be very lucrative for the manufacturers involved.
History: History And Culture Of Victorian England Assignment 1: ‘How much of a ‘revolution’ was the Industrial Revolution?’ Richard Rothwell ‘Revolution’: (from the Latin; ‘revolutio’ meaning ‘A turn around’ ): ‘A fundamental change in power or organisational structures that takes place in a relatively short period of time’ In this essay I will look at the Industrial Revolution in Britain and the changes that took place in Queen Victoria’s reign. I will examine the social, economic and political developments that came about, how they occurred and what they meant for British society. From my findings I will draw a conclusion as to the extent to which these events constituted a revolution in terms of how we usually interpret the word. To understand the developments that took place in Victoria’s reign means taking measure of british society at the time, how it had emerged and the relationship and implications of one event on proceeding events. Throughout the 18th and 19th centuries British society rapidly changed from a predominantly rurally based agrarian society to a mechanised industry driven society with the population concentrated in big towns and cities.
Renea Layne HIS 204 American History Since 1865 Technologies & American History Instructor Jason Weinerman December 12, 2011 We begin our journey back in 1866 when America was looking for a better way to be able to connect to the nation outside the world (Bowles, 2011). From 1866 to the present, there have been enormous ways that the technological world has advanced and brought America out of the physical and intellectual ways of isolation. In 1866, a transatlantic cable connected the United States with Europe, which brought almost instant telegraphic messages to each other. These messages were used for businesses and personal reasoning as well as other ways of communicating to each other. This was the first step in the world
Stalin recognised that the industrial revolutions which, had made Western Europe and Northern America so strong, had been based on iron and steel production. If the USSR were to drive towards modernisation, Stalin believed this heavy Industry had to have a role somewhere. The first FYP was from October 1929 to December 1932; the second FYP was from January 1933 to December 1937; the third FYP was from January 1938 to June 1941. Throughout these 3 Five Year Plans the priorities can be seen to have changed in some cases drastically in others more realistically, however there was underlining element emphasized throughout all 3 FYP’s being on ‘Heavy Industry’. Stalin in his speech to the Industrial Managers in Feb 1931 expresses how vital it is for the USSR to create Heavy Industry and not move ‘backwards’.
