How does industrialisation have an impact on the structure of the family? As a group, draw traditional pre-industrial and post-industrial families. Annotate the diagram with notes about life.

Why is there so many of them? Who’s in the picture? What are their jobs? What role does their family play that benefits society? Why is there so many of them? The Criddle Family, 1985.

Pre industrial Based on extended kinship networks, all working together on a commonly owned piece of land or farm. They would not go out to work – work and home would be the same place. They are “born into” their jobs – based on ascription rather than achievement. Family provides functions for the members: Members get skills and education to take their place in the family business – not literacy and numeracy No NHS so they look after each other and provide healthcare Provided welfare – e.g. looked after old people (who in turn looked after the kids) Would pursue justice for any wronged family member

Annotate the diagram explaining why industrialisation had an effect on families. Use your brain and think like a functionalist

PRE- INDUSTRIAL SOCIETY INDUSTRIAL SOCIETY Agricultural economy Extended family Labour intensive production Family as producers Industrialisation and urbanisation Manufacturing economy Nuclear family Machine intensive production Family as consumers Technological development

Why? People become geographically mobile (moved away from family home to work in cities) so bonds broken. (Couple more dependent on each other?) Work based on achievement rather than ascription became more readily available (people then less likely to listen to elders) Industrialisation changed the functions of the family, e.g. clothing factories created clothes so families didn’t have to. Home and work place separated State took over welfare (education and health) so families only have to do the 2 functions: socialisation of the child and stabilisation of the adult.

Natural roles formed because of biological differences. To look after the children Meet family’s emotional needs Socialisation of the child Homemaker To achieve success at work To bring home money Provide financial stability for the family Breadwinner Natural roles formed because of biological differences. Maternal instincts!!!
