Effects of Industrial Revolution on Public Organization

We see industrial revolution as the logic and motivation behind our modern-day society. In the
past, people had to take everything they needed by themselves. They had to plant their apple trees to eat
apples and go fishing to eat fish. That is until there are novel strategies discovered to create many abstract
cycles in our society where people could live and work differently as technological changes come and go.

People have found ways to turn natural resources with their intellect into new inventions, like
machines. Coals to power engines, steel to create the material. Vehicles are invented to eradicate or lessen
the abuse of animals for long transportations/ With this discovery, people started moving to work from
the countryside to “cities” where factories and many new occupations are located in, which is basically
what we call urbanization. Population has also started to swell since livelihood has been easier or harder
for people. Social classes have also been established as capitalism became incredibly prominent in the
society. People started discovering finance management known as the bank industry, which soon
developed into selling entrepreneurial strategies and opportunities. As socioeconomic factors began to
evolve, so did the government, its organizational structures and public order. How does Industrial
Revolution affect public organizations?

The quickness of urbanization led people accustoming themselves to a new lifestyle. Even today,
people who live in far provinces still find differences within their cultural aspects and those from Manila.
Housing in cities is cramped and a tiny space condominium in Makati would still cost more than a two-
storey house in a Visayan city. For Filipinos, NCR primarily Metro Manila is the only option of place to
get employed. That is how the pandemic crushed Philippines, since the one small city each and every one
works at cannot be crossed from lockdown.

Aside from working conditions and cultural differences, there is also the law that had to be
developed to accord to the systems of the new society caused by the Industrial Revolution. Public health
agencies most especially have to keep pace with the ever-advancing nature of medical research and
technology in order to be protective and reliable with emergency health measures. The Industrial
Revolution led the requirement of having medical officers in each area, or having clean tap water by
water filtration for the convenience of poorer people to have access to healthy living without paying for
so much. Laws for clean environment had also been made since urbanization was making severe changes
at the time. People were making new materials from another material. It was best to legislate a law that
requires citizens to take note of plastics, rubber and other garbage that will impact the environment. Air
pollution was also one of the first, and still is, issues that the era during Industrial Revolution had to face
and encounter. Mayhaps, this allowed governments to make particular committee agencies that will
encourage collective environmental management since they did not have to prior to urbanization.

And in order to achieve a proper progress to medicine, local education must thrive. In the recent
decades, the robotics and artificial intelligence industry have been infixed by education agencies to allow
young people work towards more technological transformations that will benefit the future of the nation.
The traditional education system is also the fruit people bore in order to educate the mass all at once.
Teachers will teach in a classroom; students will follow school policies and there came the idea that
education became accessible to many children.

The government’s communication to the public has also improved as time went on. The industrial
revolution allowed people to be more literate and able to read announcements relayed by officials. The
biggest effect industrial revolution made was poor housing and it still is a remaining hurdle for Filipinos
today. In the past, economic problems grew as soon as there had been the birth of different industries in
the world. International trade was founded by world leaders, and not all countries are blessed with natural
resources that make up of their national gain from trade.
