Task 2. Describe two social, political, and/or economic effects of industrialization
on Japan in the late 19th and early 20th centuries

Answers

Answer 1

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

Why was Plautilla Nelli's Last Supper painting unique compared to other versions of the Last Supper?

Answers

Answer:

Plautilla's painting was unique for several reasons:

1. In the period when she produced this painting, the Painting Industry was dominated by male artists

2. she was a self-taught artist. So there is a strong urge to make comparisons between the work of a self-taught artist and those of others who learned the trade by apprenticing under great artists

3. speaking about the last supper painting, it was noted that her painting differed significantly from those painted by male artists in the following ways:

the tableware was more elaborate; the meal featured was indicative or typical of what residents of Santa Catrina would enjoy

Some commentators have also mentioned that her painting elicits much interest given that she must have taken so much pain first to master her craft second to endure the difficulty of creating it whilst maintaining conformity with the norms/disciplines of the nunnery, especially in matters relating to vestment.

Answer:

Prior to World War I, the United States was an economic powerhouse, with wealth and industrial production rivaling that of Europe's far older colonial powers. When the country was divided and ravaged by a bloody civil war in the mid-nineteenth century, an American superpower seemed improbable (1861-65). The US Civil War began with 11 southern states seceding (withdrawing) from the United States, chiefly over disputes about states’ rights and the federal government’s authority to limit the spread of slavery. The Confederate States of America was established by 11 dissident states, while Abraham Lincoln, the newly elected president, pledged to keep the union together through military force. Its greater population and stronger manufacturing base meant the Union (northern states) were better suited for war than the Confederacy (southern states). Nevertheless, the Civil War lasted four painful years and resulted in more than 600,000 deaths. As the country worked to heal the wounds of the war and reintegrate the former Confederate states, the decade following became known as Reconstruction. Slavery was officially abolished in the United States, though assimilating more than three million former slaves posed its own set of challenges. Some of the more negative consequences were the rise of racist groups like the Ku Klux Klan and the formation of ‘Jim Crow’ laws to segregate and marginalise African-Americans. Despite these social issues, the final quarter of the nineteenth century was one of the most expansionist and profitable periods in American history. It was during this period that the foundations for America's new capitalist economy were laid. Giant companies, transportation and communications networks, the development of heavy manufacturing, and banking and financial institutions were all features that emerged in the late 1800s.

Which country used denazification as a reason for killing and enslaving millions of German men, women, and children?
United States
France
Great Britain
Soviet Union

Answers

Answer:

Soviet Union because they were the only ones to have work camps (gulags) and they occupied a part of Germany after WW2

The Soviet Union, they were the only country with labor camps (gulags), and they were the ones to occupy a portion of Germany following World War Two.

Thus, Option D is correct.

When did Germany become a Nazi country?

Denazification panels were given to the Germans by the British in January 1946, and by the Americans in March 1946. The French led the most moderate denazification campaign. Denazification was practiced in an escalatingly tolerant and ambivalent manner until it was formally banned in 1951.

Furthermore, the initiative was extremely unpopular in West Germany, where many Nazis still held influential posts. The new West German administration under Konrad Adenauer opposed denazification and stated that stopping the process was essential for West German rearmament.

On the other hand, denazification in East Germany was far tougher than its equivalent and was seen as a crucial aspect of the transition to a communist society.
