Life before the Industrial Revolution
• After the Revolutions in America, France, and Latin America changed the way government worked, the Industrial Revolution changed the way people did work.
• This begs the question “If this changed the way people worked…How did they work before the Industrial Revolution?”
![Page 4: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Industrialization fundamentally changed how goods were
produced

Industrial Revolution
• Period from 1750 to 1850 where changes in agriculture, manufacturing, mining, transportation, and technology had a profound effect on the social, economic and cultural conditions of the times.
• It began in the United Kingdom, then subsequently spread throughout Western Europe, North America, Japan, and eventually the rest of the world.

Why Great BritainWhy did the most important economic change since the
Agricultural revolution begin on this Island?

Why Britain – One More Time
• Europe’s location on the Atlantic Ocean• The geographical distribution of coal, iron and timber• European demographic changes• Urbanization• Improved agricultural productivity• Legal protection of private property• An abundance of rivers and canals• Access to foreign resources• The accumulation of capital
![Page 9: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Industrial Revolution Essentials
• Origin in England, because of its natural resources like coal, iron ore, and the invention and improvement of the steam engine
• Spread to Europe and the United States• Role of cotton textile, iron, and steel industries• Relationship to the British Enclosure Movement• Rise of the factory system and demise of cottage
industries• Rising economic powers that wanted to control
raw materials and markets throughout the world

Enter the FactoryProduction is centralized into one building
• Industrial Factory – Chief means of organizing labor around the new machines
![Page 17: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Impacts of the Industrial Revolution on industrialized countries
• Population increase• Increased standards of living for many, though not
all• Improved transportation• Urbanization• Environmental pollution• Increased education• Dissatisfaction of working class with working
conditions• Growth of the middle class
![Page 18: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The nature of work in the factory system
• Family-based cottage industries displaced by the factory system
• Harsh working conditions with men competing with women and children for wages
• Child labor that kept costs of production low and profits high
• Owners of mines and factories who exercised considerable control over the lives of their laborers
• The development of the factory system concentrated labor in a single location and led to an increasing degree of specialization of labor
![Page 19: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Second Industrial Revolution
• As the new methods of industrial production became more common in parts of northwestern Europe, they spread to other parts of Europe and the United States, Russia, and Japan
• The “second Industrial revolution” led to new methods in the production of steel, chemicals, electricity and precision machinery during the second half of the nineteenth century.
![Page 20: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
New patterns of global trade and production developed and further integrated the global economy as
industrialists sought raw materials and new markets for the increasing
amount and array of goods produced in their factories
![Page 21: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• The need for raw materials for the factories and increased food supplies for the growing population in urban centers led to the growth of export economies around the world that specialized in mass producing single natural resources – Cotton– Rubber – Palm oil– Sugar– Wheat– Meat– Guano– Metals– Minerals
The profits from these raw materials were used to purchase finished goods
![Page 22: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Industrial Impact Abroad • The rapid development of industrial production
contributed to the decline of economically productive, agriculturally based economies– Textile industry in India
• The rapid increases in productivity caused by industrial production encouraged industrialized states to seek out new consumer markets – British and French attempts to "open up" Chinese
markets during the nineteenth century for their finished goods.
![Page 23: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Need…• The need for specialized and limited metals
for industrial production, as well as the global demand for gold, silver and diamonds as forms of wealth, led to the development of extensive mining centers – Copper in Mexico– Gold and diamonds in South Africa
![Page 24: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
To facilitate investments at all levels of industrial production,
financiers developed and expanded various financial
institutions
![Page 25: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Capitalism
• The ideological inspiration for economic changes lies in the development of capitalism and classical liberalism associated with Adam Smith and John Stuart Mill
![Page 26: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Financial Instruments
• Stock markets• Insurance• Gold Standard• Limited Liability Corporations
![Page 27: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Large-scale Transnational Businesses
• The global nature of trade and production contributed to the proliferation of large-scale transnational businesses – United Fruit Company,– The HSBC- Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking
Corporation
![Page 28: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
There were major developments in transportation and
communication
![Page 29: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Developments in Transportation and Communication

The development and spread of global capitalism led to a
variety of responses
![Page 31: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Impact of the Industrial Revolution on slavery
• The cotton gin increased demand for slave labor on American plantations.
• The United States and Britain outlawed the slave trade and then slavery.
![Page 34: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Social effects and Reforms of the Industrial Revolution
• Women and children entering the workplace as cheap labor
• Introduction of reforms to end child labor• Expansion of public education• State pensions and public health (Germany)• Increased male suffrage (Britain)• Women’s increased demands for suffrage
![Page 35: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

The rise of labor unions
• Encouraged worker-organized strikes to increase wages and improve working conditions
• Lobbied for laws to improve the lives of workers, including women and children
• Wanted worker rights and collective bargaining between labor and management
![Page 37: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Capitalism
• Adam Smith’s Wealth of Nations• Role of market competition and
entrepreneurial abilities• Impact on standard of living and the growth of
the middle class• Dissatisfaction with poor working conditions
and the unequal distribution of wealth in society
![Page 39: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
• In industrialized states, many workers organized themselves to improve working conditions, limit hours, and gain higher wages, while others opposed capitalist exploitation of workers by promoting alternative visions
![Page 40: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Utopian Socialism
• Exemplified by the work of Henri de Saint-Simon, Charles Fourier, and Robert Owen
• Inspired Karl Marx and other early socialists• Generally don't feel class struggle or political
revolutions are necessary to implement their ideas; that people of all classes might voluntarily adopt their plan for society if it were presented convincingly
![Page 41: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Socialism and communism
• Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto (written with Friedrich Engels) and Das Capital
• Response to the injustices of capitalism• Importance of redistribution of wealth to the
communists
![Page 42: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Other Responses• In Qing China and the Ottoman Empire, some
members of the government resisted economic change and attempted to maintain preindustrial forms of economic production– China’s Self-Strengthening Movement
![Page 43: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
• In a small number of states, governments promoted their own state-sponsored visions of industrialization – Economic reforms of Meiji Japan– Developments of factories and railroads in Czarist
Russia– Muhammad Ali’s development of cotton textile
industry in Egypt
![Page 44: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
The ways in which people organized themselves into societies
also underwent significant transformations in industrialized
states due to the fundamental restructuring of the global
economy
![Page 45: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
• New social class, including the middle class and the industrial working class developed
• Family dynamics, gender roles, and demographics changed in response to urbanization
• Rapid urbanization that accompanied global capitalism often led to unsanitary conditions as well as to new forms of community– Tenement housing
![Page 46: Industrialization and Global Capitalism](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062422/5681315e550346895d97d496/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Final Thoughts
• Industrialization fundamentally altered the production of goods around the world.
• It not only changed how goods were produced and consumed, as well as what was considered a “good,” but it also had far-reaching effects on the global economy, social relations, and culture.
• Although it is common to speak of an “Industrial Revolution,” the process of industrialization was a gradual one that unfolded over the course of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, eventually becoming global.
