Essay on Technology Changing the Workforce

Hitler impresses the Reichstag with the ethos, credibility, of his leadership. Referring to the success of his government, Hitler entreats, “Allow me now to give you a short excerpt from our economic life which proves in plain figures whether and to what extent National Socialism has solved these problems.” Hitler then presents a simple, yet powerful statistic: a tremendous rise in annual German births. Hitler does not pick this statistic blindly. He chooses a statistic that he knows will be important, impactful, and personal to his audience. Not only is a rise in births a sign of increased prosperity (for people are unlikely to have kids if they are not in love and with the means of supporting their children), but it is also a statistic dear to his audience’s heart. After World War I, so many loved ones died. Accordingly, the babies and new life mentioned in the statistic must have brought great joy to a hurting nation. Further, Hitler reinforces his ethos as a leader when he remembers, “It was as an unknown German soldier at the front that I put together this bold program, fighting for fourteen years…” Mr. Hitler is proving his credibility as a planner and a thinker, describing his process of invention, how he carefully came up with the idea while fighting at the front. The thoughtful and planned politicians of the German Reichstag surely appreciate the care and attention their leader invested in this program. For his audience, Hitler could have no better credibility than that provided by increased birth statistics and his claim of careful

Document 2 introduces the idea of social darwinism in the workplace. It says that the workplace now isn't about who is the best at doing the work, now it's about who can do it for the longest and cheapest price. It definitely incorporates the idea of social darwinism because now there is a competition, among the workers, for who can do the job cheaper and quicker (survival of the fittest). This ultimately reveals how the divisiveness of the classes emerged: there is now competition among the working class and quarrels between the rich owners of the factories, and their middle class workers for a better work life. The purpose of this document is to show how social darwinism worked, firsthand, among the working class, in the factory.

In the era when capitalism was booming workers faced very harsh working conditions and little job security. The workers were the very last ones to benefit from their own work, “the products of capitalism invariably benefit[ed] the ‘wealthy’ first”(DiLorenzo, pg.96). Workers worked long hours sometimes even a 24 hour shift and maybe got a day off every two weeks, with a typical work week of 50-54 hours, where today it is only 40 hours. Due to this era being big on industrialism that meant machines were constantly replacing workers, that is “new machine techniques replacing old human skills

Before I elaborate my positive perspectives, it is necessary to look at Reich’s viewpoints. Albeit his slight gloom attitude toward the growing sense of powerlessness among citizens, I like how he expounds the arguments in a clear structure. He examines the powerless characteristic through three fundamental roles of citizens—as workers, consumers, and voters. But again, there are emerging choices I would like to point out that can decelerate the powerlessness.

After many decades elapsed, nowadays, the quality of human life is growing better. Human beings always search and invent new things in order to meet their needs. There are not only changes in the way that people dress and behave, but also there are many changes in forms of entertainment. In the past when technologies had not developed much, people usually entertained by getting together to dance, sing, or listen to music; many of them went to a small bar in the community to drink or play cards. Today is completely distinct from the time in the past. With innovative science and modern technologies, the entertainment has become easier and more convenient for all people. Everyone can relax and amuse themselves wherever and whenever with modern electronic devices such as cell phone, tablet, LCD TV, laptop, etc. Therefore, technology has become part of our life. Many people say that we could not do anything without technology; it helps people to make work easier. In fact, technology not only impacts our daily lives, but it also has a strong influence on the criminal justice system. If law enforcement officers apply technology to their investigations, it will assist to make the investigations less difficult and more efficient. So, what has the technology already helped to make an improvement in the criminal justice field, and how has it impacted on the law enforcement?

Technology: advancements of technological adaptation has made employment obsolete. No longer is there a need to educate and train employees for positions that Artificial Intelligence (AI) can do. Companies are paying more for research and development (R&D) into technological advances to increase their bottom line as employee salaries are a company’s highest expense (American Sociological Association, 2013).

Russell’s solutions are consumed with industrialism as a product of science, amendments to the moral code, psychology of the masses, and the human condition. First, industrialism is the largest product of scientific advancement. The progression did not lead to “any violent breach in continuity” and therefore placed no “psychological stresses” on the common man. People were still free to choose: “the old way…remain[ing] on the land” or “the adventurous migrating to new centers of industry”. The Communist Manifesto was the first result of industrialism on Germany, but soon was lost in the dust as the country became “industrially adult”. Before Germany became “educated” it was a “deeply religious country” with citizens who had a “sense of public duty”. The introduction of “competition” and an “essential” element to efficiency came as a “shock” to the people of Germany. In previous times “service to the state seemed the obviously right moral ideal” which allowed the Nazis to place industrialism into the “framework of nationalism or socialism”. “Madness” fell upon Germany, as it is natural among “nations with a strong pre-scientific culture”. The Terror of the Nazis ensued because we were to “restrain these various collective hysterias” until the country had “adjusted” to the new scientific environment. As Russell predicted this lack of restraint led to the disappearance of “civilized society”. Next,

Does technology affect people or do people affect technology? Technology affects every aspect of our lives, we all use it every day with little thought. People take it for granted, sometimes knowing little about what brought that technology into existence. At the same time older generations have a hard time adopting the new technologies and continue to favor technology they are accustomed. The idea of technology is as old as the human race. To understand technology; first we need a common definition. Technology is anything that makes a task easier for someone or something.

The clock is ticking, the work is piling up, and with only a few hours to go before sunrise you stop and realize that you have just read some fifty pages and absorbed almost nothing. Some would agree when I say that this situation epitomizes one of the common problems of the Net Generation. With the help of the Internet, not only has every aspect of life gotten faster and more efficient, but it has changed the way people process information and perform tasks. In addition, while technology does have its benefits, the extensive use of the internet is affecting the way people think.

Take for example Wehler’s description of Bismarck’s position towards the working class of Germany. The working class of Germany did not benefit from the European revolutions of 1848; instead, they were largely at the whim of their white-collar employers. Bismarck was keenly aware that this could prove to be a potential source of conflict and perhaps revolution. Thus, to keep the masses content and to ensure their conformity to the status quo, Wehler detailed a system, pursued by Bismarck, where the working classes could receive a pension from the state. This would ensure that the working classes continued in their labor as their futures were invested in the security of the German political system. In other words, Wehler argued that Bismarck sought to maintain the social and political hierarchy by a limited form of social benefits to workers. To substantiate this argument, Wehler did provide a myriad of

During this raving time period technology improved and broke way for many innovations. In my research from Ideafinder.com/history, all sorts of things were in the mist of being invented like electricity, electric battery, light bulb, automobile and even the airplane.

In the American workforce today, organizations most commonly use a hierarchy system of employee roles and authority, descending from the CEO all the way to line workers for the company. This traditional system has provided a framework and has been a staple for commerce, leading to great advancement of societies around the world. This system of management has provided structure for great opportunity, but with technology advancing faster every day in a modern world hungry for innovation and efficiency, a change might be something worth considering. In today’s modern world, the Internet and big data systems are becoming increasingly popular and complex. It is now essential that organizations adapt their management structures to thrive in this new age of innovation and technology. This exploration of change has become a necessity for companies looking to take steps in a different direction than their competitors and develop a sustainable competitive advantage.

Unemployment was widespread and a whole generation of young Germans was left hopeless and without direction. For many Germans during these terrible times, mere survival was a challenge. This wretched condition is apparent in Heinrich Hauser’s description of Germany’s unemployed who lined the highways, homeless and destitute, with no place to go. As he describes it, “unskilled young people, for the most part… had been unable to find a place for themselves in any city or town in Germany, and… had never had a job and never expected to have one.” Germany had been forced to her knees.

Over the years technology has been growing fast. Knowing human use communication by texting and calling. It’s careless for humans because not seeing each other could cause them to have problems. Instead of going out together and be active they just waste time on their phones. Humans putting a stop of when they have access to their phones so that they can spend more time with friends.

The digital age has brought about many changes in the way we conduct business, education, entertainment and mental health. The trend to incorporate technology into our mental health programs, while in its infancy, continues to grow in popularity and use by both educational and private mental health providers. There has been a great deal of discussion on the methods, ethics, problems and benefits of this new technology, however little research has been done on the effectiveness of this method of counseling on clients.
