1. “In an industrial society which confuses work and productivity, the necessity of producing has always been an enemy of the desire to create.” - Raoul Vaneigem If you have 3 quarters, 4 dimes, and 4 pennies, you have $1.19. You also have the largest amount of money in coins without being able to make change for a dollar.

3. A New Kind of Revolution Main Idea In the 1700s conditions in Great Britain led to the rapid growth of the textile industry, which in turn led to huge changes in many other industries.

5. Occurred in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The major countries involved were Britain, America, Germany, France, and later Japan. It created a major shift of technological, socioeconomic, and cultural conditions in the countries that industrialized. What Was the Industrial Revolution?

6. Occurs when countries’ economies shift from being based mainly on agriculture to manufacturing. Industrializing is also accompanied with a dramatic social, political, and philosophical change. There must be certain conditions present in order for industrialization to occur, a country must have: the land/natural resources to accommodate manufacturing a labor force capital supportive government with a stable economy What Does Industrialized Mean?

7. Factors for Success Agricultural Factors • Exploration and colonialism • Seapower • Political stability • Government support • Growth of private investment • Land, Labor, and Capital • Research and development on farms • Jethro Tull, seed drill • Improved livestock breeding • Better varieties of food crops • Increased food supply • Population grew • Enclosure movement A Revolution in Great Britain During the 1700s changes in technology began based on the use of power-driven machinery. This era is called the Industrial Revolution.

10. New Way of Making Cloth Cloth-making in Factories • Fabric made of wool or cotton • Supply of fibers increased in the 1700s • Slave labor in America – Slavery will eventually come to an end in most of the British Empire due to the efforts of William Wilberforce – Slavery Abolition Act, 1833 • Invention of cotton gin, spinning jenny, flying shuttle • Cottages too small • Factory invented • Power for factories? • Water frame for water power • Output increased 8x by 1770 A Revolution in Textiles • Textile Industry • Beginning of Industrial Revolution • Weaving was a cottage industry • Labor performed at home • Industrialization transformed this

12. Spinning Jenny Cotton Gin

14. Coal for Steam Engines Development of Steam Engine • Steam engines needed large amounts of fuel • Wood scarce • Coal mining industry • Changing landscapes • Dangers of mining • First successful steam engine in 1712 • Innovations byJames Watt • Steam power versus water power • Steam locomotives • Steamships - Robert Fulton Steam Powers the Revolution

16. Why Western Countries? America / Europe Asia • Political liberty • Freedom to compete • Rewards reaped • Exploitation and improvements • British Restrictions; Hamilton, 1791: Samuel Slater -Water frame; Slater’s Mill • Lowell’s Mill • Belgium -1807; France – 1815; Germany - 1850 • Japan first in 1868 - Meiji government • The 1900s —industrialization for: China, India, Russia Industrialization Spreads Industrialization soon spread to western Europe and the United States. Other regions did not industrialize in the 1800s. What was it about Western countries that encouraged them to embrace industry?

17. Factories and Workers Main Idea The transition from cottage industries changed how people worked in factories, what life was like in factory towns, labor conditions, and, eventually, processes within factories.

18. Work in the Home Problems for Cottage Industries • Raw materials delivered • Work done to completion • Merchant takes product to market • Workers controlled schedules, quality • Family life revolved around business • Destruction of equipment • Time to learn skills • Physical strength required • Factory owners took advantage of drawbacks Production before Factories

19. Factories and Factory Towns • Factories • Major change from cottage industry • Had to leave home to work • Hardships for some workers • Working in a factory or mine • Dangerous work for all – in factories and mines: working with dangerous heavy machinery • Long workdays – in textile mills - 10-14 hour workday • Poor factory conditions common – in textile mills: unventilated rooms causing pneumonia and TB; in mines: Lung diseases from breathing in coal dust • Life in factory towns • Towns grew up around factories • Towns, factories rose near coal mines • Sanitation poor in many factory towns

21. Despite long hours, factory workers earned very little money. Women usually earned only half of what men made. Child labor was paid the least. Due to limited opportunities for education, children were expected to work. Employers could pay children less despite the fact that they did the same work as adults. Before Child Labor laws were passed, many were forced to work in terrible conditions for lower pay. Labor Conditions: Factories

The Factory System and Workers • Workers in a New Economy • Wealthy to invest in, own factories • Mid-level to run factories • Low-level to run machines • Cottage Workers’ Unrest • Handmade goods more expensive than factory made • Luddite movement, 1811 • Violence spread, 1812 • Changing Labor Conditions • No government regulation • Labor unions organized • Strikesbrought change - 1870s: Parliament legalizes workers strikes; Child Labor Laws; Public Health Acts. • New Class of Workers • Growth of middle class • Managers, accountants, engineers, mechanics, salesmen • Economy increased • Huge contrast between the rich upper class and the poor laborers

25. Mass Production Effects • Mass production began in U.S. • Elements: • Interchangeable parts • Assembly line • Production and repair more efficient • Production more swift • Dramatic increase in production • Businesses charged less • Affordable goods • More repetitious jobs - soon became norm Factories and Mass Production The factory system changed the world of work. In addition, new processes further changed how people worked in factories.

26. Summarize What was mass production? Answer(s): a system of manufacturing large numbers of identical items
