3 That Nation of Shopkeepers! -- Napoleon Bonaparte

4 The Enclosure Movement

5 “ Enclosed ” Lands Today

6 Early Canals Britain ’ s Earliest Transportation Infrastructure - connected waterways - transported resources coal and finished products

7 Metals, Woolens, & Canals

8 “ Fossil Fuels ” Revolution - Coal & oil greatly increased energy available to humans - Dev. of machines, steam engines, internal combustion engines

9 Coalfields & Industrial Areas

10 18001 ton of coal50, 000 miners 185030 tons200, 000 miners 1880300 million tons500, 000 miners 1914250 million tons1, 200, 000 miners Coal Mining in Britain: 1800-1914

11 Young Coal Miners

12 Child Labor in the Mines Child “hurriers”

13 Factory Production ) Concentrates production in one place [materials, labor]. ) Located near sources of power [rather than labor or markets]. ) Requires a lot of capital investment [factory, machines, etc.] more than skilled labor. ) Only 10% of English industry in 1850.

14 Textile Factory Workers in England 1813 2400 looms 150, 000 workers 1833 85, 000 looms 200, 000 workers 1850224, 000 looms>1 million workers

15 The Factory System × Rigid schedule. × 12-14 hour day. × Dangerous conditions. × Mind-numbing monotony.

16 Textile Factory Workers in England

17 Young “ Bobbin-Doffers ”

18 Spreading of New/Improved Methods of Production to Other Regions - U.S., Russia, Japan industrialize

20 James Hargreave ’ s “ Spinny Jenny ”

21 The Power Loom

22 - Telegraph - Invented by Samuel Morse - greatly improved communications between/within: - businesses, cities, countries

23 Interchangeable parts – speeds production; less skill required – developed by Eli Whitney – Cotton Gin - Rifle production also

24 James Watt ’ s Steam Engine

25 Steam Tractor

26 Steam Ship

27 An Early Steam Locomotive

28 Later Locomotives

29 The Impact of the Railroad

30 “ The Great Land Serpent ” - Impact = access of goods to more people - lower prices = increased demand for production

31

32 Social Impacts of Industrial Revolution  Most benefits = Middle class (bourgeoisie) – bankers, merchants, factory owners  Most growth = Working class Proletariat – poor treatment & pay  Urbanization = pollution, overcrowding, disease  Early exploitation of woman & child labor.

33 Stereotype of the Factory Owner

34 “ Upstairs ” / “ Downstairs ” Life

35 “ 2 nd Industrial Revolution ”  Improvements in:  Steel  Chemicals  Electricity  Precision machinery Bessemer Process

37 Women in Industrial Revolution  Early 1800 ’ s = Equal # of women in factories.  Late 1800 ’ s = Increased wages (more desirable to men) and labor laws restricting women ’ s work = more women staying home.  Domestic sphere for women develops.
