A brief history of the development of modern science and technology

1, the rise of modern science and technology

/kloc-The middle of 0/5th century is an important turning point in European history. The bourgeois revolution provided social conditions for the birth of modern natural science. At the same time, science itself has waged an indomitable struggle to gain its own independent status and get rid of the shackles of religion. The rise of experimental science has made natural science have an independent practical basis.

2. The first industrial revolution

The main reason or political premise that the first industrial revolution first occurred in Britain was that the rule of the bourgeoisie was gradually established and strengthened in Britain; Through the enclosure movement, Britain produced and gathered a large number of labor, and also expanded the British domestic market; Years of overseas trade and colonial expansion have accumulated original capital for Britain and provided a vast raw material land and overseas market.

3. The Century of Science

The century of science refers to the19th century when modern science is fully prosperous. The scale and maturity of scientific development in19th century far exceeded the scientific revolution in17th century, and major breakthroughs were made in the fields of thermodynamics, optics, electromagnetism, chemistry, geology, biology and anthropology, and most of them entered a new stage of theoretical synthesis.

The future development path of disciplines in the new period;

1. Actively build a new historical view of science and technology.

The development history of the history of science and technology, in a sense, is the history of the continuous evolution of the history of science and technology. In recent decades, the older generation of historians of science and technology have created many excellent models for future research in the field of history of science and technology. These are all academic traditions that we must inherit.

2. Strengthen the intersection between the history of science and technology and related disciplines.

As a bridge between science and humanities, the history of science and technology itself is conducive to its cross-integration with different disciplines. For example, cooperation in disciplines such as history of science and technology, archaeology of science and technology, and cultural heritage will be the growth point of the construction of first-class disciplines in many schools and become a weighty spokesman.
