Progressive Era (1890-1920) Who were they? Urban Middle-Class: writers, teachers, scholars Many were women

Progressive Era (1890-1920) Goals: Social Welfare: to relieve urban problems Ex.) YMCA, settlement houses, Illinois Factory Act 1893 to prohibit child labor and decrease women’s hours Moral improvement: to improve moral conditions Ex.) Prohibition and the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union, more aggressive Anti-Saloon League. Angered immigrant workers who depend on saloons for cheap meals, a place to cash checks, and rooms for weddings, union and political meetings. Economic Reform: Many critiqued the abuses of Capitalism, but do not go so far as supporting Socialism. “Muckraker” journalists like Upton Sinclair tried to expose the abuses of Capitalism AND support Socialism, but he was the exception. Fostering efficiency: Ex.) Scientific Management: The idea was meant to make factories more efficient and reduce work load, but many factory owners use this as a way to squeeze even more work out of employees
