Benefits of Industrialization & Capitalism

Industrialization fundamentally altered societies and economies, though it had both benefits and disadvantages. While it initially relied on practices like child labor, over the long run it improved living standards, led to workers' rights movements, and broke down oppressive social hierarchies. The document aims to show the positive effects of industrialization and capitalism by highlighting how they developed otherwise impoverished towns and fulfilled people's material needs and wants, despite ongoing debates around their impacts. In conclusion, the evidence presented argues that capitalism was on balance a force for good that raised standards of living.

Industrialization is the one of history’s single most important areas; going from agrarian
and clerical based society, the information presented shows industrialization, a truly gray area, in
the white; through handpicked quotes, photos, and interviews in support of child labor,
capitalism, and the benefits of labor and capital, through said documents one thing ca be shown:
despite numerous disvantages of industrialization, the betterment of otherwise left to die towns,
positive workers, and benefits of capitalism are what is shown.
Historically speaking we know outside of the presented evidence that society, and social
norms were completed altered from industrialization and capitalism; major historical events
socially and economically were founded. Knowing out of industrialization comes classic
economics in Smith’s school all the way to the complete opposition of Marxian economics which
fully reject the notion of capitalism: however both are in favor of industrialization, for every
benefit it causes from elimination of diseases and eventually work in all; socially over the last
century it would break down traditional oppressive gender roles, lead to worker movements
worldwide from IWW to many socialist nations, lead to many post-WWII freedom movements
in the West to end wars, end segregation, sexual revolutions, feminism, Stonewall riots,
debarment, and the to the end of the authoritarianism of the Eastern Bloc nations, with
“socialism with a human face”, Gorbeschave’s reforms, and the ending of the Berlin Wall.
In the context of the evidence presented we get the full ideology of positivity; why
indutrlaization and furtherly capitalism mainly are good; debates on economics will always
preset however in the evidence provided, capitalism seems to be the sufficient victor, through
building up what could be called: “left to die” towns through work, infrastyure, and aid; the
evidence supports child labor as a means of literacy and giving a job, through analyzing Ayn
Rand quote, we get the idea that capitalism fulfils the materials needs and wants of the world.
In conclusion through evidence provided throughout imagining the outcome is of the
positives of the most controversial economic system there is, for some it is evil and for other it is
as holy as the shinning gates of heaven, the evidence supports the notion that capitalism through
aid, development, and materialism is a positive economic thought and should be implemented
globally.
