Post-industrial society is a stage in a society’s development during which the economy transitions from one that primarily provides goods to one that primarily provides services. In other words, the service sector, made up of people such as nurses, teachers, researchers, social workers and lawyers, among others, accounts for more of the economic growth and wealth than the manufacturing sector, which is made up of people such as construction workers, textile mill workers, food manufacturers and production workers. The economics transformation associated with a post-industrial society subsequently transforms society as a whole.
In addition to the economic characteristics of a post-industrial society, changing values and norms reflect the changing influences on the society. Outsourcing of manufactured goods, for example, changes how members of a society see and treat foreigners on immigrants. Also, those individuals previously occupied in the manufacturing sector find themselves with no clearly defined socialrole.
