Document Summary
Major centers: germany and united states, who themselves were trying to catch up to british lead in industrialization. A newly unified germany and young us nation wanted to emulate the successes. England had seen with industrialization, and were willing to try out new approaches to industrial processes in order to do so. The us and germany were enrolling more and more students into university to catch up in the industrial race. Key feature of this time: the rise of techno-science based industries. These industries are unique because this is the first time we see technology and applied science be combined. Techno-science based industries that were popular during this time were electric and chemical industries. In the us, they are beginning to create new methods of manufacturing which the british would actually coin as: the us method of manufacturing . Contrast this with england, who by this time was firmly entrenched in first industrial age methods.
