Andrew Valdez Mr. Shaw Ap Euro March 5, 2012 One Hit Wonder Life has been called ”Time Wizard” because it tends to make things happen all over again. That is why history is very dear to this society. We need to be able to pay attention to detail and learn from other people’s mistakes. France and Britain were not able to do this. They let Hitler rebuild and conquer again.
Industrialization greatly affected the balance of power in the world. Those nations that did industrialize became significantly more powerful. The first nation to industrialize was Great Britain. One of the major effects of industrialization was the need for raw materials, so it encouraged colonialism. The European powers attempted to dominate in far-flung places in order to make sure that they had the resources needed to drive their
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.
Evolving, growing and managing a team of people is never perfect. The rebellions and arguments teams have within themselves resolve into working master pieces! Advances and industrial sweeps take a toll on success and soon enough, the teams goal is close to accomplished. The 1800’s industrial revolution paved the way for faster systems and organized concepts which inevitably helped the twenty-first century to have become what it is today. During the 1800’s, industrialization took the economy by storm.
Since its declared independence in the late 1700s, the United States has become one of the most industrialized nations in the world. This was caused by major changes that occurred in society between 1890 and 1920. Social changes included the spike in gangs and tenements, along with changes in the role of African Americans Political reform also took place as a result of social change. Along with social and political change came economic change, which took the shape of legislation such as the Anti Trust laws, which increased exports in the United States between 1870 and 1920. Industrialization also caused an increase in urbanization.
That before we know it our appliances will be smarter than us one day and that’s not how man intended life to be; humans are supposed to be on top. Not being able to use today’s technology rings in Barry’s purpose. Technology has gone wild and he makes it very clear with several examples. His ability to discredit these technologic advances brings credit to his point. One can always refute anything they’d like, but to be effective, one needs to have appropriate facts for back-up and a dominating style that brings it all together.
Because of the lack of passion, the middle or center most position will never garner the enthusiasm that fuels the fiery rhetoric and mass protests that the more polar positions wield. But I believe that by far, the most productive and sustainable legislation and business practices always come from the center. Therefore it is my recommendation that the public at large look at the lessons of the past and see that neither a pro-business nor a pro-regulatory climate is the most beneficial one. I believe that the best answer, the best solution, the most sustainable outcome will be the one closest to the center.

This was most prevalent in Europe, where all the nations scrambled for colonies in Asia, Africa and the Pacific. Interestingly, colonies were most sought after at the height of industrialization. As the European countries were discovering more about the benefits of mass production, the demand and competition for more land, raw materials, markets and produce escalated quickly thus creating the tension that triggered the World War 1. The way most historians portray this cause shows that the imperialistic rivalries magnified in 1871, when France had to give up her resourceful provinces of Alsace and Lorraine to Germany as per the peace Treaty of Frankfurt. Thereafter there were many such imperialistic rivalries.
This showed the world that the actions of this group should not be taken seriously. Instead of America taking militar action they responded with the Stimson Doctrine. With this doctrine the US would not recognize “Manchuko” because it was taken by force. Only slightly stronger than what the League of Nations did it had the same result; it did nothing to stop the aggression. The actions in Italy, Germany, and Japan just pushed the isolationist movement even more, to not be dragged into another foreign war.
Although the theory of Pan Germanism became more apparent to most in the 20th Century; its theory had in fact been around for hundreds of years previously, having originated from the desire to unify all the German provinces. Once this aspiration had been achieved in 1871 by Auto Von Bismark and Kaiser Wilhelm 1 had been corinated, it was then the aspiration for colonial expansion and to unite all German speaking peoples including those in Austria-Hungary and Eastern Europe. It was the coronation of the ambitious Pan-Germanist Kaiser Willhelm II in 1888 which resulted in the renewed hunger for the nation to expand its empire and to bring about much needed raw recourses to sustain its growing economy. It was therefore deemed a necessity, in order to protect its expanding territories, to increase military and naval capabilities, resulting in a doubling of the German army from 1870 to 1914 and dramatic increase in its naval capabilities to the second largest in the world. It was the challenge of the previously un-opposed British Navy which would provide the vital foundation for the expansion of Germany’s empire and the Pan-Germanist aspirations.
