"TECHNOLOGY AND HISTORICAL PRECEDENTS"

"Industrialisation, smartphones and A.I. and more examples of technologies that have been associated with historical seismic shifts especially in the last century with the acceleration of technology. Some people say, 'Look at the historical patterns of the past.'"

"Technologies could be described as being associated with new historical precedents. According to what the kyoto philosophers said, they believed that war is something that defines history. It could be argued that they saw war as something associated with new historical precedents especially with the decline of usage of cavalry. In the case of technology, what are the new historical precedents associated with technology?"

"If we look at the manufacturing of cars which was associated with a higher demand of roads, we now see larger connections between the rural and the urban areas. Ruralites were seen as the 'untouchables' by others including those who wanted to invade where they preferred conquering the urban areas. Now the rural people are now viewed as semi-urbanites."

"Another case, is the industrialisation which was associated with lots of women being able to earn a salary where she is now able to afford clothing, food and housing. Whilst housing did become more expensive as the labour supply increased, the woman doesn't feel the inclination to get married in comparison to the pre-modern woman who married out of her desire to survive."

"Another new historical precedent is the amount luxuary the masses have in comparison to today. In fact not even some of the wealthiest people during the pre-modern era had access to the luxuries of average person of today. Even the rural people have access to electronic fans."

"There are much more historical precedents associated with technology that have occurred in the last century."
