The modernisation process has always had this important feature: it is not possible without constant efforts to assist it. During the history of humanity, such remedies as sport, music, and art have been effectively applied to aid this process. With the beginning of an industrial era, science and technology have also occupied their due place in this process.
Nowadays modernisation can be acclaimed as the ever speeding u process. It is not without constant efforts of scientists and men of technology especially those who are busy in the area of informational technologies. The newspaper article The economist (23 February 2012) tells about more and more ways to apply X-ray technology in varied areas of modern life thus assisting the process of development in the most diversified areas including biology, IT technology, medicine, and many more.
In addition, varied strategies developed by specialists and scientists in the area of the economy might be taken into consideration with regards to the process of modernisation. This is no wonder as any efforts to assist progress require economic and material support, first of all. The newspaper article The Economist (21 February 2012) explains the way new strategies in borrowing are applied in Asia to speed modernisation in the region. The article discusses varied ways to provide effective strategies of borrowing, and it also explains what important results were achieved by means of such economical strategies.
Further, the process of development in the world has always been inspired by cultural values; people need the inspiration to move ahead. The very nature of human beings is organized around motivating stimuli. The newspaper article The Financial Times (22 February 2012) accounts for how people are motivated and inspired to go ahead in modernization by such arts as ballet and opera. The article raises a row of issues on the need to have a source of new ideas that can be found when satisfying one’s cultural and emotional needs by means of art. One more newspaper article adding to this point is the Financial Times (21 February 2012).
Next, since the times of the Olympic Games humanity has been encouraged to progress by the ideas of sports achievements. Kellison argues that sport gives new ideas on the organization in the society; sport can be acclaimed as a source of successful strategies of management which can be applied in the most varied areas of human life (2012, p.5). Similar ideas can be found in the Financial Times article (23 February 2012).
In conclusion, the process of modernisation needs a lot of assistance to be smoothly conducted. Among the most successful remedies used to assist and speed up development in modern society are scientific and technological solutions including IT technologies and economical findings, culture as a means to inspire the running of the process including music and art, and sport as a sphere of human life offering successful organization strategies which can be applied in the most varied areas of life in order to speed up the process and make it more efficient.
