THE NEXT INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION? - Cy Mail 17/10


By Nektarios Michail

The first industrial revolution was the period between 1760 and 1840, which was defined by more efficient and stable manufacturing processes, at a large scale, aiming to reduce labour costs. The transition, led by Great Britain around 1760 and reaching the United States by 1840, ended up improving the standards of living for the Western world. As expected, industry captured most of the total production, with the share of services in GDP for the United States (US) and the United Kingdom (UK) stood at approximately 40 per cent in 1840.

The second industrial revolution (late 19th and early 20th century) was characterized by rapid scientific discovery, standardization and mass production, as well as the wide use of the telegraph and railroads. This led to less human input in traditional industries, while electrification removed the darkness constraint and production shifted also towards the services sector. By 1910, the share of services in GDP for the US and the UK had increased to around 51 per cent.

The Cyprus problem was “all caused by Turkey” and its President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, United States Senator Rick Scott said on Friday, as he paid a visit to the island and was given a tour of the buffer zone in Nicosia.

“This is all caused by Turkey and Erdogan. Cyprus, a sovereign, independent nation – actually, a great ally to Israel to the United States, to Greece. It could be a great ally to a lot of countries,” he said after the tour.

He added, “what needs to happen here is Erdogan and Turkey need to stop, stop this”.

DENMARK, ITALY AND POLAND PUSH EU FOR TOUGHER IRREGULAR MIGRATION RULES

DENMARK, ITALY AND POLAND PUSH EU FOR TOUGHER IRREGULAR MIGRATION RULES -  KNews 17/10

Draft summit conclusions call for tighter border controls and warn against policies that encourage illegal arrivals.


Denmark, Italy and Poland are pressing European Union leaders to adopt a tougher approach to irregular migration, according to a draft of summit conclusions circulated before a meeting of the bloc’s 27 member states.

The proposal, supported by Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, describes migration as a challenge for European societies and links irregular arrivals to crime rates.
