Do you think china has a right to an industrial revolution like we did in the early 19th century?

Question

sorry , i meant early 20th century

Answer 1

China is in the enviable position of being able to look at the mistakes most countries made when they transitioned from an agrarian economy to an industrial economy, and learn from them.

I think that it's inevitable that China will become an industrialized country, it's to their advantage to do so, although they also have to modernize their agricultural economy to assure that they can feed their people. One of the primary things that has made the US a world force is that we have always been able to feed our own population with enough left over to sell to other countries. China's agricultural economy is borderline right now-- mostly they can feed their own population, but the standard of living for most people is low and they are extremely vulnerable to natural catastrophes like drought or flood that could threaten crop yields.

China is in the position right now of rapid growth and change in their economy. If they can avoid international conflicts and learn from the mistakes other nations have made, they ought to emerge as a major industrial power over the next few decades.

Answer 2

Ofcourse china has the right, but what rights have the poor people who have to slave away in the sweat shops?
there just the same as the rights that people had when they worked in the mills and factorys of the western indunstrial revolution. A very meger wage and a very poor qaulity of life!
It sucks and we should all be less materialistic.

Answer 3

The slave commerce grew to become into quite rewarding, and did something to maintain Britain afloat interior the era. although to link it directly to the English business revolution is over-uncomplicated. There are 2 factors worth making: a million...different countries (France, Spain, Portugal, Holland....) additionally traded slaves. there grew to become into, till later, no business revolution in those countries. 2...Britain grew to become into on the time the worldwide's finest mercantile u . s . in each sort of criminal factors (no longer counting the unlawful ones which contain smuggling). buying and merchandising quite made Britain wealthy and inspired the indoors economic equipment, so encouraging innovation and test. We made funds from ventures around the completed worldwide, which contains the a strategies East. Slave buying and merchandising grew to become into portion of this image, yet no longer the completed of it, nor even an significant element. whilst the slave commerce in British ships grew to become into abolished our business revolution speeded up, no longer the opposite; the aspects hitherto employed buying and merchandising Africans have been perforce diverted to greater effective channels. those countries which nonetheless traded slaves did no longer journey a surprising and substantial strengthen in prosperity - basically a modest upward push in income as a rival vanished. this is basic to magnify the magnitude of anybody ingredient interior the worldwide community of British commerce, and the two uncomplicated to diminish cost in simple terms kinfolk motives of the business revolution. desire this facilitates.

Answer 4

Technology spurs an Industrial Revolution. I don't think the term "has a right" makes any sense in that context.

Chow!!

Answer 5

Well, they are not exactly living in the 1700's themselves...they have quite a bit of industry....as a matter of fact many American based companies outsource their work to China to save on labor costs.

Answer 6

If China insists on making such a revolution in an error-prone fashion, as we did, then, NO.
Given China's present attitude toward a "green planet", I would say, BAH!!!
It seems they are hell-bent on not learning from our mistakes and (mark my words) they will continue to be selfish because their bottom line is MONEY and EMPLOYMENT, (even if it kills them.
Perhaps they, as we, will regret it when it is too late.
The human race is GREAT at being STUPID, (as history teaches us, we keep making the same GOOFS).

Answer 7

The matter is not if they should or shouldn't because they are in the middle of a great industrial revolution, and are actually a step ahead of the U.S.

Answer 8

Of course they do... the United States of America needs to help them... but I DO NOT think China will accept help or listen.

Coal fired energy plants kick out too much CO2's. Also do not listen to the GNAT BRAINS that know nothing.

Answer 9

Of course China has a right to it. The US isn't the only country that is allowed to be advanced.

Answer 10

yes china does and so does every other country
