Infrastructure
|
 |
| Infrastructure to a society is the same as infrastructure to a humble living cell. Infrastructure includes such things as the membrane (defensive network), in the case of a city, its protective boundary, the streets and roads by which goods may be transported in and out, the supply of water and the extraction and removal of waste. Infrastructure also includes energy, goods and food storage systems. | ||
| Some historical and social works on the analysis of cities and civilizations define much infrastructure as technology. By UCA, we make the distinction that technology pervades an entire social structure, not necessarily one part, so that a definition of technology cannot be taken out of context of the society to which it served. Therefore the definition of infrastructure is used. | ||
