The types of categories jobs can be in. A loosely defined term. Some industries have abnormal power on countries.

Industries are the, in general, characteristics and methods that are enforced in an industrial society. Some industries listed below tend to become operated by powerful players with some less "kind" intentions, as they have the potential to dominate populations and change society forever.


Society

Family structure changes with industrialisation. Sociologist Talcott Parsons noted that in pre-industrial societies, a generation remained in the same location for centuries. In industrialised societies the nuclear family, consisting of only parents and their children, has disappeared. Since the end of WW2 the effectiveness of service industries has caused a shift to more urban cities.[1]
