Technical changes continued to occupy a central position. Technical innovations concentrated, essentially, on new sources of energy such as gas, oil or electricity; new materials and new transport systems (airplane and automobile) and communication (telephone and radio) induced chain transformations that affected the work factor and the educational and scientific system; to the size and management of the companies, to the form of organization of the work, to the consumption, until ending also in politics.
