'''Industry''' refers to the production of an [[economic]] good (either [[material]] or a [[service]]) within an [[economy]].  There are four key industrial [[economic]] sectors: the primary sector, largely raw [[material]] extraction industries such as mining and farming; the secondary sector, involving refining, construction, and [[manufacturing]]; the tertiary sector, which deals with [[services]] (such as [[law]] and [[medicine]]) and [[distribution]] of [[manufactured]] goods; and the quaternary sector, a [[relatively]] new [[type]] of [[knowledge]] industry focusing on technological [[research]], [[design]] and [[development]] such as computer programming, and biochemistry. A fifth, quinary, sector has been proposed [[encompassing]] nonprofit [[activities]]. The economy is also broadly separated into [[public]] sector and [[private]] sector, with industry generally categorized as [[private]]. Industries are also any [[business]] or [[manufacturing]].

Industry in the sense of [[manufacturing]] became a key sector of production and labour in European and North American countries during the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_Revolution Industrial Revolution], which upset previous mercantile and feudal economies through many [[successive]] rapid advances in [[technology]], such as the steel and coal production. It is aided by [[technological]] advances, and has continued to [[develop]] into new [[types]] and sectors to this day. Industrial countries then assumed a [[capitalist]] [[economic]] policy.

Following the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_Revolution Industrial Revolution], perhaps a third of the world's economic output is derived from [[manufacturing]] industries—more than [[agriculture]]'s share.
