Describe the changes the industrial revolution brought to the lives of working-class people and middle-class people. how did their experiences of industrialization differ?

The industrial revolution was a social, economic, and technological transformation that started in the United Kingdom in mid-18th-century and then expanded to Europe and North America. It shifted the world economy from an agricultural production focus to a manufacturer production economy, based on the scientific and technological advances of the modern era. This transformation brought several changes in the lives of working-class people and middle-class people.

First, throughout the 19th-century, a large number of workers moved from the country to urban centers, where they were employed in precarious conditions in different factories in order to produce textiles, engines, and other industrial goods. This large work-force was the basis of this economic transformation, and it was characterized by exploitation and low quality of life of thousands of working-class people.

Second, the rise of the middle-class can be traced to the bourgeois that was benefited with the liberal revolutions of the 18th-century in the UK. In the beginning, they were merchants and artisans, workshops owners that later became factories owners. They were the economic and political protagonists of the industrial revolution and were immensely benefited from this process.

Also, with the economic growth generated by industrialization and the pressure of workers organized in labor unions for better living conditions, the 20th-century saw an increase of the middle-class in capitalist countries. In general terms, due to welfare policies, many workers happened to enjoy better work and living conditions with access to better standards of health and education.

isolationism is a doctrine practiced by the united states for much of its history with the aim of not intervening in external affairs that did not pose a real threat to their country. the united states managed to maintain a state of political isolation throughout the nineteenth century and the first part of the xx. few nations have been able to maintain such a position for such a long period of time. historians argue that it is largely due to geographical reasons, given the physical distance between europe and the usa. uu the venataja of this situation is that the national state can spend its resources in satisfying all the needs of its inhabitants, without the need to invest in armament and equipment for a war that does not directly affect the country.

internationalism is a political and cultural movement that advocates for greater political and economic cooperation among nations for mutual benefit. this novimiento was transformed over time, today it includes military intervention in international conflicts with the objective of maintaining peace. the advantage of this move is in the international contacts and the influence developed by the country that carries it forward.

between the two modes of relations between states, i prefer the first, since i believe it is of the utmost importance to satisfy the needs of citizens and work for their development and as a last option to act on the international level.
