Nuclear families are of 2 generations, i.e. Parents and their children. Functionalists believe that industrialisation has led to an increase of nuclear families. In pre-industrialisation times, there were more extended families and was an agricultural society. The extended families worked together for production and to support each other until industrialisation began and referring back to Item B, the nuclear family became popular because it led to greater geographical mobility which means they will lose contact with the extended kin.
Much of the Progressive movement occurred coincidentally due to Immigration, Industrialization, and Urbanization. Fewer moments are marked by individuals such as Teddy Roosevelt and other progressive social reformers. The United States was primarily a farming country up to the Industrial Revolution. With industrialization came a total switch in the types of jobs people performed, from working on a farm to working in a factory or an office. To fit the population, dumbbell tenements and settlement houses were formed as a part of the progressive reformist social movement.

Government creates the rules and frameworks in which businesses are able to compete against east other. From time to time the government will change these rules and frameworks forcing businesses to change the way they operate. Business is therefore keenly affected by government policy. The key area of government economic policy is the role that the government gives to the state in the economy. Between 1945 and 1979 the government increasingly interfered in the economy by creating state run industries which usually took the form of public corporations.
There has been a decrease in the number of nuclear families in the UK and an increase in various other families such as single parent families. But the raise in single parent households has to do with the increase in divorce across the UK which means that more people are left having to support their children on their own unless they become a reconstituted family. Functionalists are classed as modernists when it comes to their opinions on family diversity in post-modern UK. But they also see modern society as clear-cut, fixed and predictable. They think that the best and strongest family type is the nuclear family.
Asses the ways in which technology and industrialization and the attendant changes in American social structure altered the lives of threeof the following groups The Industrial Revolution brought great changes to the Western economy and society. Major technological innovations intensified international commercial contacts. Technological innovations helped workers with Agriculture, steam, factories, and the With Agriculture beginning to use machinery, Steam becoming a very important part of everyday life, and factories being able to put in new machinery there was an increase in the position of the government. Change did not always mean progress; with change there came a number of setbacks as well as advances for the people with agriculture beginning to use new machinery the market for food increased. They began to use machinery rather than animals and people.
During the eighteenths and nineteenth century, there was a changing in society in Europe and America, called the Industrial Revolution. Back then, both areas were rural with dependence on the use of agricultural to earn an income and feed themselves. When making tools or anything that required manufacturing, it was done in the homes of people with hand tools and basic machines. The Industrial Revolution was very important because during this time the invention of the steam engine boosted transportation and factory machines. Also the iron and textile industries benefited greatly with the revolution.
The invention of the steam engine in the 18th century transformed the transportation capabilities of society and spurred further innovation as people and materials could be quickly transported on land for distances previously unimaginable. Finally, it is difficult to understate the ways in which the microchip and personal computer have fundamentally altered the organization of society; the instant access to and constant flows of information have changed communication, education, and business in modern society. In light of the social change wrought by these technological innovations, sociologist William Ogburn argued that technology was the basic cause of social change. In particular, he identified three processes by which technology drove social change: Invention, discovery, and diffusion. While invention can refer the combination and transformation of existing materials into new items, it can also refer to social invention and the propagation of new ideas.
Fomento invited investment of external capital, importing the raw materials, and exporting the finished products to the U.S. market. To entice participation, tax exemptions and differential rental rates were offered for industrial facilities. As a result, Puerto Rico's economy shifted labor from agriculture to manufacturing and tourism. The manufacturing sector has shifted from the original labor-intensive industries, such as the manufacturing of food, tobacco, leather, and apparel products, to more capital-intensive industries, such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, machinery, and electronics. Through this project, a rural agricultural society was transformed into an industrial working class.
