The The Industrial Industrial RevolutionRevolution

The Industrial Revolution is when people stopped making stuff at

home and started making stuff in factories!

Page 2: Industrial revo 9a 9c

The Industrial Revolution was a period from the 18th to the 19th century where major changes in agriculture, manufacturing, mining, transportation, and technology had a profound effect on the socioeconomic and cultural conditions of the times

Industrialization: a shift from an agricultural (farming) economy to one based on industry (manufacturing)

Page 3: Industrial revo 9a 9c

Key TermsKey Terms Industrialization – a shift from an agricultural

economy (farming) to one based on industry (manufacturing)

Manufacturing – the use of machines, tools, and labor to make things for use or sale

Rural – farming or country life; villages (sparsely populated)

Urban – city life (densely populated) Urbanization – the movement of people to cities Tenement – a substandard, multi-family dwelling;

usually old and occupied by the poor Free market – a market in which there is no

economic intervention and regulation by the state (govt)

Capitalism – private ownership of means of production

Socialism – society (not the individual) owns and operates the means of production

Causes of the Industrial Causes of the Industrial RevolutionRevolution

Agricultural Revolution – improved the quality and quantity of food – Farmers mixed different kinds of soil or tried new crop

rotation to get higher yields– This led to a surplus of food = fewer people died from

hunger = rapid growth in population

Rich landowners pushed ahead with enclosure: the process of taking over and consolidating land once shared by peasant farmers (farm output and profits rose)

New technologies and new sources of energy and materials (e.g., James Watt’s steam engine became a key source of power)

The Enclosure MovementThe Enclosure Movement The process of taking

over and consolidating land formerly shared by peasant farmers

Landowners gained:– More land for pastures– Larger fields for crops

Laborers lost:– Forced off their lands– Moved to growing cities

Page 17: Industrial revo 9a 9c

• Urbanization: the movement of people to cities

• Changes in farming, soaring population, and an increase in demand for workers led people to move from farms to the cities to work in factories

• Small towns near natural resources and cities near factories boomed instantly

First Major Industry to First Major Industry to FormForm

TEXTILE!The demand for cloth grew, so merchants had to compete with others for the supplies to

make it. This raised a problem for the consumer because the products were at a higher cost. The solution was to use machinery, which was cheaper then products made by hand (which took a long time to create), therefore allowing the cloth to be cheaper to

the consumer.

Remember the ‘Spinning Jenny’? It reduced the amount of time and work needed to produce yarn (increased productivity)

Page 19: Industrial revo 9a 9c

Textile Factory Workers in England1813 2400 looms 150, 000 workers

1833 85, 000 looms 200, 000 workers

1850 224, 000 looms >1 million workers

– As demand for cloth As demand for cloth grew, inventors came grew, inventors came up with new machines up with new machines (e.g., flying shuttle, (e.g., flying shuttle, spinning jenny)spinning jenny)

Spinning Jenny: 1764Spinning Jenny: 1764 Invented by James

Hargreaves At the time, cotton

production could not keep up with demand

This machine spun many threads at the same time, thus reducing the amount of work needed to produce yarn (increased productivity = produced yarn quickly)

Page 23: Industrial revo 9a 9c

Modern Steam Engine: 1763-Modern Steam Engine: 1763-17751775

Improved by James Watt

Offered a dramatic increase in fuel efficiency

Could be used to drive many different types of machinery (by the 1850s, most factories were powered by the steam engine)

Increased the demand for coal to heat the water to produce steam (and the need for coal miners)

Page 24: Industrial revo 9a 9c

Cotton Gin: 1793Cotton Gin: 1793 Invented by Eli Whitney to mechanize the

cleaning of cotton

A machine that quickly and easily separates the cotton fibers from the seeds, a job previously done by hand

Led to the demand for more slaves

(Henry) Bessemer Process (Henry) Bessemer Process for the Manufacture of for the Manufacture of

Steel: 1856Steel: 1856 Bessemer process

involved using oxygen in air blown through molten pig iron to burn off the impurities and thus create steel

Lowered the cost of steel production, leading to steel being widely substituted for cast iron

Steel used for the production of guns and railway structures such as bridges and tracks

Technology The Industrial Revolution was built on

rapid advances in technology Which of these three inventions most

changed the way that raw materials, goods, and people moved?

Page 28: Industrial revo 9a 9c

The Impact of the Railroad

•Transportation innovation that most changed the way raw materials, goods, and people moved

•Allowed communication and trade between places previously deemed too far

Page 29: Industrial revo 9a 9c

Where employees worked Major change from cottage industry Had to leave home to work (travel to cities)

Life in factory towns Towns grew up around factories and coal mines Pollution, poor sanitation, no health codes = sickness Rapid population growth Poor lived in crowded tiny rooms in tenements (multistory buildings

divided into apartments)

Working in a factory No safety codes = dangerous work for all Poor factory conditions (e.g., no heat or a/c, dirty, smelly, cramped) Long workdays (12-14 hours) Little pay (men compete with women and children for wages) Child labor = kept costs of production low and profits high Mind-numbing monotony (doing the same thing all day every day) Owners of mines and factories exercised control over lives of

laborers

The factory system changed the world of work;Mass Production = the production of large amounts of standardized products, especially on assembly lines

• Mass production began in U.S.

• Elements:

– Interchangeable parts

– Assembly line

• Production and repair faster and more efficient

Mass Production• Dramatic increase in

production

• Businesses charged less

• Affordable goods

• More repetitious jobs

• Soon became norm

Assembly LineAssembly Line Workers on an assembly line add parts

to a product that moves along the belt from one work station to the next

A different person performs each task along the assembly line

This division of labor made production faster and cheaper, lowering the price of goods

The JungleThe JungleUpton Sinclair

– Written in 1906 to point out the troubles of the working class and the corruption of the American meatpacking industry in the early 20th Century

– Depicts poverty, absence of social programs, unpleasant living and working conditions, and hopelessness prevalent among the working class, which is contrasted with the deeply-rooted corruption of those in power

Karl Marx: CommunismKarl Marx: Communism Wrote: The Communist Manifesto, 1848

A response to the injustices of capitalism; argued that capitalism would produce internal tensions which would lead to its destruction

Communism = a political philosophy that aims for a classless and stateless society structured upon common ownership of the means of production and an end to private property

“Class struggle between employers and employees is inevitable. Instead of capitalism with its emphasis

on greediness and selfishness, the new society ruled by the proletariat (working class) will ensure social,

economic, and political equality for everyone.”

Page 56: Industrial revo 9a 9c

Capitalism vs. CommunismCapitalism vs. Communism Capitalism:

– an economic and social system in which capital

is privately owned– labor, goods and capital are

traded in markets; and – profits distributed to owners or

invested in technologies and industries.

Communism: – a social structure in which

classes are abolished – property is commonly

controlled– A dictatorship of the workers

Advantages of the Industrial Advantages of the Industrial RevolutionRevolution

– Goods were able to be produced much more cheaply

– There were greater job opportunities – There was an increase in wealth and in general

quality of life – An independent urban manufacturing business

force arose – New inventions and innovations occurred;

information spread, making the world “smaller”– Spurred the rise of large cities
