	Industrial Revolution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Industrial Revolution was the major technological, socioeconomic and cultural change in the late 18th and early 19th century resulting from the replacement of an economy based on manual labor to one dominated by industry and machine manufacture.
		The causes of the Industrial Revolution were complex and remain a topic for debate, with some historians seeing the Revolution as an outgrowth of social and institutional changes wrought by the end of feudalism in Great Britain after the English Civil War in the 17th century.
		This "second" Industrial Revolution gradually grew to include the chemical industries, petroleum refining and distribution, electrical industries, and, in the twentieth century, the automotive industries, and was marked by a transition of technological leadership from Great Britain to the United States and Germany.

	Planning the Software Industrial Revolution

	N. Negroponte: "Being Digital", Beyond Demographics

	Matthew Yglesias: More Industrial Age
		I think this whole "reform for the Information Age", at least as Cherny describes it, is based not so much on changes in the structure of the economy, as that modern citizens are so much more savvy and sophisticated that they don't need a paternalistic government to provide security and limit their choices.

		If the Information Age is to actually replace the Industrial Age, we will have to witness something other than improvements to the existing technology supporting the mechanisms of the Industrial Age.
