Abstract
Indeed, we are in a rapidly changing world. Who would have thought that we already had three industrial revolutions, which brought significant changes by revolutionizing the production of goods and services and the way people communicate with each other. These industrial revolutions have impacted the technological, socioeconomic, and cultural aspects of people’s lives. A lot of technological breakthroughs emerged during the industrial revolution. New materials (iron and steel) were discovered and new machines were invented (power loom and spinning jenny). Large-scale industries emerged from countries once dominated by agriculture and handicraft. Productivity has further increased due to the introduction of mechanized manufacturing using new machines powered by new sources of energy and the utilization of division of labor which made work in the factory much more efficient. Agriculture also flourished. Transportation run by steam was introduced and radio and telegraph improved communication. In terms of socioeconomics, the distribution of wealth for a wider section of the population was realized, and workers began to organize to protect themselves. There were also sweeping changes in the culture of the people, particularly in the way they handle things. They were brought to a higher level of productivity by being armed with new skills and the shift from hand tools to machines. This led to the rapid economic expansion of countries in Europe, particularly Great Britain, Belgium, and France, as well as the United States and Japan.
