Question

The Industrial Society is characterised by alienation. How?

Answer 1

• Industrial society involves detailed division of labour so people often do not see the end result of their work since they are producing only one small part of a product. 
• Work is repetitive and exhausting. 
• This leads to alienation for people don’t enjoy their work and see it as something they have to do in order to survive, and even that survival depends on whether the technology has room for any human labour.
