| This paper discusses The world is now dominated by modernizing societies, and
modernizing societies must continue to grow in adaptive complexity at least as fast as other
competitor societies in order to survive. Modernization is a post-Second World War formulation
when the Asian, African and Latin American countries became free from the colonial rules and
moved on the path of development. These countries formed a political region, known as the
Third World’. The rapid growth of modernizing societies has the con-sequence that the world is a
smaller place with each passing year, while technological improvements mean that ever more of
the world is suitable for modernization. the processes of modernization and industrialization
from a very general and primarily sociological point of view. It does so also, it should be
remembered, from a position within the very processes it describes. The phenomena of
industrialization and modernization that are taken to have begun some two centuries ago and that
were not until much later identified as distinct and novel concepts have yet arrived at any
recognizable. |
