In case of the first source, I think that there had been a triumph of Progressivism because of the ways in which the basic issues had been pointed out clearly by Upton Sinclair. There had to be awareness developed by specifically making courageous statements about the prevalent elements of negligence during the time of progressivism. The problem of proper sanitation during the packaging and processing of meat had been problematic (Montoya et al., 2017). Therefore, there had been fear developed in the mind of Upton to not use packed/packaged meat and the other citizens had also become aware of this.
