Examples of industrialization in the following topics:
-
- Industrializing countries have low standards of living, undeveloped industry, and low Human Development Indices (HDIs).
- Considering global stratification, industrializing nations are at the middle of the hierarchy.
- Standards of living in industrializing nations are lower than in developed countries, but range widely depending on whether a nation is rapidly industrializing or is in decline.
- For example, India is considered a industrializing country.
- Explain why some scholars use the term 'less-developed country' instead of 'industrializing country'
-
- One schematic by which one can divide the world is between industrialized and non-industrialized countries.
- Countries that score poorly on these scales are considered to be non-industrialized, though it should be noted that non-industrialized countries are undergoing the process of industrialization.
- However, while the trend of a growing older population appears the world over, people in industrialized nations are older than people in non-industrialized nations.
- Thus, while people in all countries are living longer than prior generations, people in industrialized nations live longer than people in non-industrialized nations.
- Produce a short debate which shows the pros and cons of industrialization
-
- During the industrial era, cities grew rapidly and became centers of population growth and production.
- During the industrial era, cities grew rapidly and became centers of population and production.
- Since the industrial era, that figure, as of the beginning of the 21st century, has risen to nearly 50%.
- Rapid growth brought urban problems, and industrial-era cities were rife with dangers to health and safety.
- Rapidly expanding industrial cities could be quite deadly, and were often full of contaminated water and air, and communicable diseases.
-
- But this type of production required a new type of labor, industrial labor.
- Building new industrial machines required enormous investments.
- Industrial labor is defined as labor in industry.
- This being said, industrial labor also includes service jobs that rose up alongside, and as a result of, industrial production.
- Karl Marx referred to industrial laborers as members of the proletariat .
-
- The world's least industrialized countries have low income, few human resources, and are economically vulnerable.
- The Pacific island country of Samoa illustrates the distinction between least industrialized countries that receive international aid from the UN and industrializing countries that do not necessarily receive significant assistance from the UN.
- In contrast to industrialized and industrializing countries, the world's least industrialized countries exhibit extremely poor economic growth and have the lowest Human Development Index (HDI) measures in the world.
- Thus, the definition of LDCs is more rigid than the definition of developing/industrializing and developed/industrialized countries .
- Countries in the 1–10,000 international dollar range roughly correspond to least industrialized countries.
-
- After this, an agrarian society typically develops, followed finally by a period of industrialization (sometimes a service industry follows this final stage).
- In an industrial society, the primary means of subsistence is industry, which is a system of production based on the mechanized manufacture of goods.
- In a post-industrial society, the primary means of subsistence is derived from service-oriented work, as opposed to agriculture or industry.
- Most highly developed countries are now post-industrial.
- This means the majority of their workforce works in service-oriented industries, like finance, healthcare, education, or sales, rather than in industry or agriculture.
-
- Before the 1980s, Detroit was a center of industrial production and a hot spot of American culture.
- Deindustrialization occurs when a country or region loses industrial capacity, especially heavy industry or manufacturing industry.
- Deindustrialization is, in a sense, the opposite of industrialization, and, like industrialization, deindustrialization may have far-reaching economic and social consequences.
- While 35% of workers were involved in industry in the late 1960s, under 20% are today.
- This graphic shows the decline of the manufacturing industry relative to other industries over the course of the past sixty years.
-
- Pre-industrial typically have predominantly agricultural economies and limited production, division of labor, and class variation.
- Medieval Europe was a pre-industrial feudal society.
- The economy was based on the exchange of labor for land instead of the exchange of wages for labor that is typical in industrial society.
- While pre-industrial societies share these characteristics in common, they may otherwise take on very different forms.
- Two specific forms of pre-industrial society are hunter-gatherer societies and feudal societies.
-
- Deindustrialization refers to the process of social and economic change ignited by the removal or reduction of industrial activity.
- Deindustrialization refers to the process of social and economic change ignited by the removal or reduction of industrial activity/capacity in an area that was formerly supported by the manufacturing industry.
- It is the inverse process of industrialization—the process of social and economic change that began in the eighteenth century, transforming agrarian societies into industrial ones.
- Rather, it redistributes industrialization to India.
- The number of American workers in the manufacturing industry has declined steadily from its peak of 31.5 million in 2000.
-
- Global aging differs depending on the access to economic and social resources; thus, industrialized countries tend to have older populations.
- However, while the trend of a growing older population appears world over, people in industrialized nations are older than people in non-industrialized nations.
- Easier access to pervasive biotechnology in industrialized nations means that people live longer.
- Most of these countries have lower levels of development and industrialization.
