Innovation & Revolt Print Edition

By Leopold Boeckl

Today's industrialized nations are still limping toward recovery in the aftermath of the Great Recession in 2007, and the world is watching the many resulting social revolutions. History has seen this before; in fact, titanic revolutions have been cyclical responses to the horrific financial conditions borne out of the industrial era's market crashes. The French Revolution and World War II are two indelible examples of violent impacts incited by large economies suddenly taking a nosedive. History meets macroeconomics as this book lays out how technology has been the main driver of societal change for all of human history. This book then outlines the four waves of technological innovation that have powered the industrial era and traces the seismic shifts in culture, society, and worldview that brought about the world as we know it today.
