Introduction
Social and political change in America and Europe began in the mid-18th century. This essay identifies the ideological voices of political and revolutionary views as well as evaluates the factors that transformed the social structure in Europe and the Americas from 1750 to 1900. Therefore, it is easy to define revolutionary objectives based on the internal drive induced by the objective and scope. Among the highlighted areas are two types of revolutions, the Atlantic Revolution and the Industrial Revolution. When the Atlantic Revolution was limited in time (1700 – 1849), the Industrial Revolution spanned a century (1770 – 1900). Determining the identity of revolutionary forces serves as the driving force for change and its consequence for the primary political and ideological aims (De Gouges 127).
Factors
During this period, some of the factors that led to the social structure in America and Europe are; Industrialization. Although industrialization was well underway in the United States before the Civil War, the characteristic features of the postwar era were unprecedented innovations, innovations, new technologies, and architectural elements that changed the nature of work and all aspects of the life of Americans and Europeans (Starr). The expansion of the industrial economy created opportunities for entrepreneurs to rapidly accumulate new wealth, produce large numbers of operative jobs, and make money a primary indicator of social dignity (Coontz). Economic Growth – The output of the U.S. economy increased. Business Specialization – Being a Commodity Producer Complex and business jobs were mostly subdivided and specialized. This led to not only greater efficiency and productivity but also more significant discrimination. Immigration – Millions of migrants flew into the growing industrial sector of the country (Clark and John 379). Many people came from countries with low local populations and faced negative stereotypes and discrimination, which helped to create more social perception.
By 1900, 22% of workers were foreigners. Urbanization – In 1870, three-quarters of Americans lived in rural and small areas. By 1900, the population was very urban, and 80% of workers were engaged in non-professional employment. Population Growth – The U.S. population tripled over this period. Development of large financial institutions -The significant economic forces had monopoly profits and drove national markets. Industrial barons, the construction of complex bureaucratic structures
Social Structure
In most cases, revolutionary forces have been instrumental in bringing about changes in the political and social aspects experienced. St. Dominguez’s extremist voices encouraged and encouraged the slave revolt. As a result of this encouragement, slaves were able to fight injustice. Besides, nationalism and liberalism have undergone political changes in Haiti, Latin America, and France (Benton). These ideological goals, political goals, and revolutionary voices, which are deeply rooted in the principles of nationalism and liberalism in these countries, have played an essential role in promoting their adoption. Both revolutions led to social and political changes in which they upheld the idea of enlightenment and independence.
They worked very hard to support trade expansion, which was beneficial to the Industrial Revolution. The most significant blow to revolutionary voices is the result of social and political changes that have killed people (Collier 52). Some extremist views have advocated the use of peaceful resistance, but in most cases, the oppressors have remained steadfast in maintaining their aristocratic status. One example is the Haitian Revolution, where many rebelled against slaves lost their lives. The assassinations and assassinations in Haiti were intended to discourage the Atlantic Revolution. Other areas like the U.S. have lost their lives, and people have been tortured. Yet there is a mantra of economic anarchy and social anarchy as it challenges the elites.
Conclusion
The new systems of nationalism and liberalism are unique and do not take root. Thus, before the new regime adopted these theories, there was a revolt as Westerners struggled to adapt and reform (Crowe). Finally, many revolutionary voices serve political and ideological goals. These ideologies are characteristic of the goals they set for political and social change in Europe and America. Despite the limitations associated with revolutions, their role in promoting social, political, and economic transformation is immense. The current generation takes advantage of the struggles and changes they have experienced in the two revolutions.
