How have economic pressures and technological changes transformed the production and consumption of American culture?
The ways in which ecconomic pressures and technological changes affect any culture are as many and various as the culture in question, probably too vast a subject to be answered in a few simple sentences. The advent of economic pressures such as The Great Depression caused sesmic shifts in populations as people moved across the States looking for long-term jobs and secure homes for their families. The advent of the Interent has laid open the myriad availability of culture in all its forms to an audience unhindered by time or distance. Simply put, those two simple but far-reaching examples of economic pressure and technological change have seen American society evolve into something entirely different – forced to move and change as a reaction to those forces. If anyone else can add to this answer with their own thoughts, please do so.
