Explanation:
Modernization refers to a common behavioral pattern characterized by a rational and scientific world view, based on growth and ever increasing application of science and technology. It is an adaptation of new institutions emerged in the society to cope with the new situation dominated by science and technology.
Concept of Modern, Modernity and Modernisation are tremendously notorious, mostly because of their ambiguity and vagueness. Each one lacks any precise meaning. Modernisation has assumed a lot of significance particularly after the end of the Second World War, in the 1950’s and 1960’s. Industrial Revolution in England and to some extent, French Revolution in France brought Modernization to limelight. Volumes of literature written about these three concepts have contained many contradictory observations and conclusions. As a result, no single theory of modernisation has been justifiably presented to explain the process of modernisation for social change. The process of modernisation dates back to the age of Renaissance and formation in all walks of life-like literature, science religion etc.
