Question

what role did industrialization have in leading to modern reform movements? it decreased the power of the middle class. it made farmers a more potent political force. it intensified urbanization. it made monarchs desire constitutions.

Explanation:

Industrialization led to a large - scale movement of people from rural to urban areas. As industries developed, factories were concentrated in urban centers. Workers, in search of employment opportunities, migrated to cities. This led to a rapid increase in the urban population, a process known as urbanization.

• The middle - class power actually increased during industrialization as they were involved in business, management, and professional services related to the new industries.
• Farmers faced challenges during industrialization. With the growth of manufacturing, there were changes in land use, and they often struggled economically rather than becoming a more potent political force.
• Monarchs did not generally desire constitutions because of industrialization. Constitutions were often the result of political struggles (such as those of the bourgeoisie and the working class) against monarchical and aristocratic rule.

Answer:

It intensified urbanization.
