چکیده:
Industry and industrialization are prevalent subjects in sociology, evident in the majority of seminal and contemporary works. The current theoretical investigation employs a critical framework and relies on the thought experiment and axiomatization of reasoned statements methods to determine which direct and intermediary mechanisms are most influential in the relationship between industry (technology) and society at large, with a specific focus on social health.This paper posits that the establishment and growth of the industry and its associated technologies in the host communities will result in a multitude of both positive and negative alterations to diverse facets of the social health of the local populace. Thus, ten theoretical statements were examined to elucidate the research problem. Ultimately, several factors were identified as the repercussions and effects of the industrialization process on the social health of cities: unrestrained urbanization development, prioritization of economic gain over other considerations, escalation of immigration and internal migration, heightened heterogeneous population density, disregard for local and environmental needs, and increased urbanization without regard for environmental concerns.The present paper developed a synthetic model that contributes to a novel comprehension of the issue at hand. This model may serve as a valuable guide for future research endeavors.
خلاصه ماشینی:
The assumption of the article is that with the establishment and expansion of industry and related technologies in host communities, numerous positive and negative transformations occur in the dimensions of social health of residents in those areas.
In this theoretical study, which is based on the method of thought experiment and axiomatization of reasoned propositions, with a critical approach, the most important influential mechanisms in examining the relationship between industry (technology) and social health are investigated.
In this way, to explain the research problem, ten theoretical propositions were considered and investigated, and ultimately factors were identified as consequences and effects of the industrialization process on the social health of cities, including: unrestrained urban development, prioritizing economic interests over other considerations, increased migration and internal migration, increased heterogeneous population density, disregard for local and environmental requirements, increased economic and social inequality, various differences in the demographic structure of immigrant-receiving and immigrant-sending areas, reduced levels of social capital, increased crime and violence, unsustainable development and environmental damage, reduced physical and mental health, imbalanced educational growth, and ultimately influencing the social health of residents of host industrial communities.
On the other hand, the entry and growth of industry in some societies inevitably comes with positive and negative consequences; for example, from a historical and industrial sociological perspective, although the process of industrialization brought untold and unexpected wealth, especially for the wealthy societies and nations of the world in the nineteenth century, and subsequently transformed their way of life, it led to numerous social problems, including poverty, livelihood and housing problems, and endangering health (Sheikhi, 1396: 10).
