Yes, rapid social change is a comparatively new phenomenon in human history.

The most rapid changes started 400 years ago and the pace of changes increased in the last100 years. This acceleration in changes was mainly due to advancements in technology and the advent of the industrial revolution. Therefore, the speed of these changes that are occurring, is increasing day by day, every decade. Human beings are progressing towards development and new scientific milestones every day.
