Industrial Revolution: Characteristics

Hard

(Originais Teachy 2023) - Question Hard of Geography

During the period of the First and Second Industrial Revolutions, significant changes occurred in the way goods were produced, impacting various aspects of society. Considering the studies of important thinkers like Karl Marx, who deeply analyzed the social and economic impacts of these revolutions, imagine you are a 19th-century geographer observing these changes. Based on your knowledge of the 1st and 2nd Industrial Revolutions, what kind of analysis would you conduct on the impacts of these changes on the use of natural resources and the promotion of economic and socio-environmental sustainability on the planet? Additionally, how do you believe these transformations could be represented through cartographic, graphic, and iconographic languages?
a.
The analysis conducted would be that the Industrial Revolutions brought technological and economic advancements, but also threatened the socio-environmental sustainability of the planet due to the intensive use of natural resources and environmental impacts. The transformations could be represented through maps, graphs, and images showing the expansion of industrialization, the increase in the use of natural resources, working conditions, and environmental impacts.
b.
The analysis conducted would be that the Industrial Revolutions did not have a significant impact on the use of natural resources and the socio-environmental sustainability of the planet. The transformations could be represented through maps showing the decrease in industrialization, graphs showing the decrease in the use of natural resources, and images representing improved working conditions and the absence of environmental impacts.
c.
The analysis conducted would be that the Industrial Revolutions only brought benefits to society and the environment, with the sustainable use of natural resources and the promotion of socio-environmental sustainability. The transformations could be represented through maps showing the expansion of industrialization, graphs showing the stability in the use of natural resources, and images representing good working conditions and environmental preservation.
d.
The analysis conducted would be that the Industrial Revolutions did not impact society and the environment, as the natural resources used were infinite and socio-environmental sustainability was not a concern at the time. The transformations could be represented through maps showing the stagnation of industrialization, graphs showing the stability in the use of natural resources, and images representing working conditions and the absence of environmental impacts.
e.
The analysis conducted would be that the Industrial Revolutions only brought disadvantages to society and the environment, with the excessive use of natural resources and total environmental degradation. The transformations could be represented through maps showing the retraction of industrialization, graphs showing the decrease in the use of natural resources, and images representing poor working conditions and environmental destruction.
