What are some of the historical events that led to the transformation of Western European societies?

1.The Renaissance and the opening of new routes [The Renaissance violently impacted feudal theology, promoted the emancipation of people's minds, gave birth to the modern bourgeois culture of Western Europe, and prepared the ideological and cultural conditions for the bourgeois revolution. The opening of new shipping routes promoted the development of European capitalism, and at the same time triggered a frenzy of colonial plunder by Western Europeans.

2.The rebirth of England [through the Glorious Revolution, a new bourgeois constitutional monarchy was established in England]. 3.

The independence of the United States. 4.French Revolution.

5.Triangle**. 6.

The First Industrial Revolution. 7.The Second Industrial Revolution [greatly contributed to the development of the capitalist economy].

From the emergence of handicraft workshops and leased farms, we can understand the important social and economic changes in Western Europe in the early modern period.

1 Know the new changes that took place in the field of rural and handicrafts in the late Middle Ages in Europe.

2 Understand that the emergence and development of leased farms and handicraft workshops promoted the gradual capitalization of the organization of agricultural and handicraft production, and began to gradually dismantle the feudal system in Western Europe.

3 Understanding the changes in the social class structure of rural cities laid the foundation for Europe's transition to modern society.

Focus. The emergence of leased farms and handicraft workshops, the emergence of wealthy peasants and burghers.

Nodus. Important socio-economic changes in Western Europe in the early modern period.

In the late Middle Ages, when European societies were in a period of transition, new types of leasehold farms and artisanal workshops appeared, how did they differ from the manor economy? What are the implications for the future development of Europe? With these questions in mind, let's study Lesson 13 "Economic and Social Development in Western Europe" today to understand this period of history.

First, the new mode of production and operation.

Historical Sources 1 Mid-10th Century For 300 years in the mid-13th century, wasteland was continuously cultivated throughout Western Europe, thus constituting a massive and long-lasting ...... of the Great Reclamation MovementThe types of this reclamation movement can be roughly divided into two types: one is the reclamation of uncultivated lands in the interior of Western Europe, such as forests, swamps, grasslands, etc., which is inward-looking reclamation; The second is the export-oriented colonization of the surrounding areas of Western Europe, which often evolves into the external expansion of the feudal forces of Western Europe.

Teacher: What new changes have taken place in rural Europe since the 11th century?

Student: Reclamation campaigns have been carried out in various places, and a large amount of woodland, wasteland, and swamp have been developed, and the land area has gradually expanded.

Teacher: How is the newly cultivated land managed?

Students: Settlers became the masters of these newly developed areas, and they farmed on their own terms. These newly developed areas have been modelled on autonomous cities and have become regions with independent judicial and administrative autonomy.

Historical Sources 2 In the early 14th century, famine followed by plague and a drastic decline in population in Western Europe left many peasants and manor owners at least partially idle. These changing economic conditions again necessitated the adjustment of contractual arrangements. The most effective way to retain tenants is to reduce rents and reduce the ...... of slavery obligationsLabor services were inevitably replaced by the payment of money rents, and the land was cultivated by tenants and/or wage-receiving laborers who freely sought their work.

Teacher: Read the above historical materials and combine them with the knowledge of the textbooks, and tell what happened to the feudal estates in Western Europe.

From the Renaissance to the Rococo period, this was the stage of Europe's transition from traditional to modern society. In terms of economy, capitalism.

The mode of production was gradually spread, and the capitalist economy developed greatly; Politically, although the feudal aristocracy still had great privileges, the new bourgeoisie was also growing in power, and in some areas it even took control of the political apparatus; In the realm of thought and culture, the feudal theological shackles were caused by the Renaissance movement.

and the two heavy blows of the Enlightenment. But despite the trend towards total innovation, feudalism.

The social reality full of contradictions between the old and the new, the progress and the backwardness has had a rather complex impact on the development of art and design.

The transformation of Western society is mainly manifested in the changes in social structure and social forms.

Concrete manifestations of social transformation:

1) 14 The disintegration of feudal society in Western Europe and the rapid rise of capitalist industry and commerce (economic, ideological) in the 16th century.

2) The prelude to modern industrial civilization at the end of the 17th and 18th centuries and the establishment of bourgeois representative institutions (modern natural science, the Enlightenment, Anglo-American representative system, etc.).

3) Late 19th and early 20th centuries: two industrial revolutions, liberal capitalism to private monopoly capitalism, etc.

4) The forties and fifties of the 20th century: the confrontation between the two political systems, the formation and evolution of the bipolar pattern, the evolution of the world economic pattern, etc.

5) At the end of the 20th century: the drastic changes in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, the collapse of the bipolar pattern, the strengthening of the trend of multipolarization in the world, the trend of regional economic grouping and the globalization of the world economy.

Summary. The Origin and Transformation of Proto-Industrialization in Europe is a book published by Jiangsu People's Publishing House in 2004.

The book is divided into three parts. The first part, "Breakthrough of Theory", studies the ins and outs of the original industrialization theory, affirms the value of this theory, and puts forward the problems existing in this theory, so as to put forward the necessity and value of this project.

The second part consists of chapters 2 to 6, which discuss the basic characteristics, geographical distribution, conditions of its ascent, and organizational forms, respectively, and devotes a chapter to proto-industrialization under the "reprint of serfdom" in Central and Eastern Europe.

The third part consists of chapters 7 to 10, which describe the various levels of preparation for industrialization and the ways in which the transition to industrialization was made. This paper makes a detailed analysis of the failure of the transition from proto-industrialization to industrialization and its causes, and also makes a detailed analysis of the continued existence and function of proto-industrialization in some regions after the start of industrialization, because we believe that this analysis has important reference significance for the transformation of underdeveloped economies.
