Task 2. Describe two social, political, and/or economic effects of industrialization
on Japan in the late 19th and early 20th centuries
Answer:
Carl Mosk, University of Victoria
Japan achieved sustained growth in per capita income between the 1880s and 1970 through industrialization. Moving along an income growth trajectory through expansion of manufacturing is hardly unique. Indeed Western Europe, Canada, Australia and the United States all attained high levels of income per capita by shifting from agrarian-based production to manufacturing and technologically sophisticated service sector activity.
Still, there are four distinctive features of Japan’s development through industrialization that merit discussion:
The proto-industrial base
Japan’s agricultural productivity was high enough to sustain substantial craft (proto-industrial) production in both rural and urban areas of the country prior to industrialization.
Investment-led growth
Domestic investment in industry and infrastructure was the driving force behind growth in Japanese output. Both private and public sectors invested in infrastructure, national and local governments serving as coordinating agents for infrastructure build-up.
Investment in manufacturing capacity was largely left to the private sector.
Rising domestic savings made increasing capital accumulation possible.
Japanese growth was investment-led, not export-led.
Total factor productivity growth — achieving more output per unit of input — was rapid.
On the supply side, total factor productivity growth was extremely important. Scale economies — the reduction in per unit costs due to increased levels of output — contributed to total factor productivity growth. Scale economies existed due to geographic concentration, to growth of the national economy, and to growth in the output of individual companies. In addition, companies moved down the “learning curve,” reducing unit costs as their cumulative output rose and demand for their product soared.
The social capacity for importing and adapting foreign technology improved and this contributed to total factor productivity growth:
At the household level, investing in education of children improved social capability.
At the firm level, creating internalized labor markets that bound firms to workers and workers to firms, thereby giving workers a strong incentive to flexibly adapt to new technology, improved social capability.
At the government level, industrial policy that reduced the cost to private firms of securing foreign technology enhanced social capacity.
Shifting out of low-productivity agriculture into high productivity manufacturing, mining, and construction contributed to total factor productivity growth

Durante la baja edad media, el aumento de la producción agrícola produjo una mejora en la alimentación de las personas y un aumento de la población. Esto también significó la reactivación del comercio debido a: a) la migración hacia América b) el excedente de alimentos c) las invasiones germánicas d) el aumento del poder de los reyes AYUDA POR FAVOR
La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.
La respuesta correcta es A) la migración hacia América.
Durante la baja edad media, el aumento de la producción agrícola produjo una mejora en la alimentación de las personas y un aumento de la población. Esto también significó la reactivación del comercio debido a la migración hacia América.
estamos hablando de un momento importante en la historia moderna de la humanidad, cuando las monarquías Europeas deciden fortalecer su periodo de exploración de nuevas rutas marítimas y el descubrimiento de nuevas tierras como las Américas.
Cristóbal Colón descubre América el 12 de octubre de 1492. Y de inmediato los reyes Fernando de Aragón e Isabel de Castilla autorizan mandar conquistadores a América para colonizar los territorios y poblarlos.
Caso similar con el Reino Unido, que mandó sus primeros pobladores a Norte América. Ahí fundaron la primera colonia inglesa de trece: Jamestown, Virginia. Y entonces fue que se incrementó el comercio entre las nuevas colonias en América con las naciones de Europa.

what is a counter claim for racism (for an essay)
Answer:I dont know just put this
Explanation:
Racism is the belief that groups of humans possess different behavioral traits corresponding to physical appearance and can be divided based on the superiority of one race over another. It may also mean prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against other people because they are of a different ethnicity. Modern variants of racism are often based in social perceptions of biological differences between peoples. These views can take the form of social actions, practices or beliefs, or political systems in which different races are ranked as inherently superior or inferior to each other, based on presumed shared inheritable traits, abilities, or qualities.

What were the results of the crusades?
Answer:
The entire structure of European society changed during the 12th and 13th centuries, and there was a time when this change was attributed largely to the Crusades. Historians now, however, tend to view the Crusades as only one, albeit significant, factor in Europe’s development. It is likely that the disappearance of old families and the appearance of new ones can be traced in part to the Crusades, but generalizations must be made with caution. It should, moreover, be remembered that, while some Crusaders sold or mortgaged their property, usually to ecclesiastical foundations, others bequeathed it to relatives. The loss of life was without doubt considerable; many Crusaders, however, did return to their homes.
The sectors acquired by burgeoning Italian cities in the Crusader states enabled them to extend their trade with the Muslim world and led to the establishment of trade depots beyond the Crusade frontiers, some of which lasted long after 1291. The transportation they provided was significant in the development of shipbuilding techniques. Italian banking facilities became indispensable to popes and kings. Catalans and Provençals also profited, and, indirectly, so did all of Europe. Moreover, returning Crusaders brought new tastes and increased the demand for spices, Oriental textiles, and other exotic fare. But such demands can also be attributed to changing lifestyles and commercial growth in Europe itself.
The establishment of the Franciscan and Dominican friars in the East during the 13th century made possible the promotion of missions within the Crusade area and beyond. Papal bulls granted special facilities to missionary friars, and popes sent letters to Asian rulers soliciting permission for the friars to carry on their work. Often the friars accompanied or followed Italian merchants, and, since the Mongols were generally tolerant of religious propaganda, missions were established in Iran, the Asian interior, and even China. But, since Islamic law rigidly prohibited propaganda and punished apostasy with death, conversions from Islam were few. The Dominican William of Tripoli had some success, presumably within the Crusaders’ area; he and his colleague Riccoldo di Monte Croce both wrote perceptive treatises on Islamic faith and law. Other missionaries usually failed, and many suffered martyrdom. In the 14th century the Franciscans were finally permitted to reside in Palestine as caretakers for the holy places but not as missionaries.

"Urbanisation undermines caste. The relative anonymity of an individual’s identity in a city makes it difficult for rules of purity and pollution to be observed and enforced in the public sphere.
Fewer activities are then mediated by an individual’s caste identity. And urbanisation will continue to increase. By 2030, 40 per cent of Indians are predicted to live in urban areas.
The urban middle class, once a preserve of the upper castes, has become more diverse with gradual entry of backward castes and Dalits.
The marriage market reflects this change. In 1970, only 1.5 per cent of matrimonial ads published in the national dailies belonged to backward castes and Dalits. This number had increased to 10 per cent by 2010.
In cities, the search for partners differs from that in villages. People in the middle class shift from family and caste networks to friends and professional networks, and rely on technology. Already 250 million Indians own smartphones.”
Excerpt from "Caste and Marriage in Urban Middle-Class India” by Amit Ahuja, 2016
How has the caste system in rural Indian areas adapted to globalization differently than the caste system in urban areas?
- Rural areas have been unaffected by globalization because of their isolation.
- Rural areas have changed the most socially, as globalization has led to an adoption of Western culture.
- Rural areas have been slower to adapt socially to the changing global society, as technology and industrialization have had less impact.

Answer:
Rural areas have seen a greater weakening of the caste system, as many people from lower castes have moved to urban areas in search of work.
Explanation:
