Perhaps the most persistent and widespread association, which occurs when the word "revolution" is a noisy street processions dissatisfied with something people angry protests, mass meetings, over which hover previously banned flags and slogans.Revolution - is a powerful tectonic shift, shaking society, a wave that sweeps away on the way almost everything that embodies the old regime.Sometimes pedestals dragged monuments hated rulers, into the fire fly formal portraits, banners, emblems and other symbols of the overthrown government.
Meanwhile, there are many other, less dramatic and harsh manifestations of the complex and at the same time multifaceted phenomenon as a revolution.This concept is often used in relation to a variety of processes taking place in virtually all spheres of human activity, including the economy and politics, art and culture, science and production and so on.Under the pressure of the revolutionary vortex can not resist even the moral and ethical foundations of centuries seemed unshakable and reliable.Proof of this is the so-called "sexual revolution."This is not just some catchy punch, because in his time a revolution in the mass public consciousness, such a decisive rejection of the previous ideas about the institution of marriage and family was truly revolutionary.
striking example embodiment of revolutionary ideas can also serve as the most common cell phone.Its creation was made possible by a process that began in the fifties of the last century and became known as STR - scientific and technological revolution.This phrase refers to a qualitatively new stage in the development of the productive forces - this is the stage when the main determinant of the modern picture of the world, becomes a scientific and technological progress.The revolutionary nature of this process is that the interaction of science and industry has radically and in a fairly short period of time is not only changing the material basis of society, but almost all of its social and spiritual structure.More and more, new, previously unimaginable forms of interpersonal relations, evidenced by - the Internet, global and immediate dissemination of information through which virtuality is closely intertwined with reality, and often it turns out that it replaces.
Revolution - it is always a sudden surge, radical changes, scrapping obsolete and established forms and the emergence of radically new.And all this takes place in a rapid pace.Matches on writing the word "evolution" has a completely different meaning.Evolution and revolution - two relatively different forms of development.The first form is slow, gradual changes (evolutionary path), and a second, relatively rapid changes occurring in the shortest historical period (the revolutionary).
It is impossible to predict which of these methods is preferable - and at that, and the other has its pluses and minuses, but the final verdict may make a time.One thing is not in doubt - sometimes only a revolution can clear the way to prosperity and progress, but this used to be a radical method with great caution.
