Obviuosly,there can be no doubt that development is by necessity evolved to fill a natural vacuum begging for a n institutional redress,in a pragmatic attempt to revamp social and economic standard of living of the people.The biggest impulse ever contrived in modern history for all time still remains the industrial revolution of the 18th and 19th century respectively.This in real terms,altered the cultural landscape of the western civilization.
However,it must be noted that social and economic demand riding on the heels of necessity was instrumental to its success and this signifies why political ,social and economic values tend to change when the need for technological values,also change.The great Britain was the birthplace of industrial revolution,beginning from the seveenth century ,at the county of Lancaster,of a landmark event whose transformations that later spiraled worldwide took Europe by storm.The textile industry provided the lead and being transformed by mechanisation and industrialisation that was begun in people s home known as the cottage industry .In the 1700s,a series of innovations ,prompted an ever increasing productivity,that required less human energy and manual operations and was spurred by the mass production technology provided by Adam Smith during the same period.
Moreover,the invention of spinning jenny by James Hargreaves-1722-1778 that enabled to produce multiple spirals of threads simultaneously..History has it that by times of his death,there were over 20,000 spinning jennies spread over great Britain.When Samuel Compton -1753-1827,came he was able to improve on the innov
ations of spinning jennies with his spinning mule as well as later emergent machines. The power loom which mechanised the process of weaving cloth,came in 1780s been the invention of Edmund Cartwright 1743-1823,This moved the world closer to fulfilling the dreams of Adam Smith vision of mass production and made possible the mobilisation of the mordern fruits of technology .
While evolution in the iron industry also played a vital role with the vital inventions of Englishman Abraham Darby I678-1717in the early 18th century which discovered a cheaper way of producing cast iron through a coke fueled rather using a charcoal fired furnace. An inexpensive process was first developed for mass producing steel,with the invention wrought by Henry Bessemer a British engineer ,in which both iron and steel became significance resources that made mass production possible form aplliances , tools and machines,infrastructure,buildings, to ships,cars among others.However,the biggest invention of the industrial revolution and unarguably was the invention of Thomas Newcomen 1664-1729,that was used primarily to pump water out of
mines.When in 1770s,came the Scottish inventor James watt to improve on the works of Newcomen,the most profound stage was set to usher in industrila revolution in an unprecendented way.
Obviously it is clear that societal and cultural values change as technological mode evolves making possible to advance the practice of development and the standard of living respectively.Growth can spurned according to the extant salvos of technologiy and development can be formed when they are sustained and further commercialization of its efficiencies is improved.The practice of development though tied its apron string nvetheless can deny the extant values that supplanted it.It should be noted that the voyage of culture existing and its nherent productivity found in people homes was was subsquently mechanised and commercialised to provide and promote this mass development of the later era.
