Industrialization
John
Since the 19th century, Industrialization has had positive and negative effect on the lives of the workers. Industrialization is the development of the industries for the machine production of goods. I choose Great Britain because England is where it all started.
Industrialization changed the lives of many people in many ways. Two examples were the working conditions of workers, and the rise of the middle class. Industrialization changed the lives of worker as in Great Britain workers spent 14-day hours a day at the job and 6 days a week. Work remained the same moth after month and years after years. Factories also injured people because machines weren’t safe and people get sick because the factories weren’t clean. And there was no government program to provide aid in a case of injury. So over all working in a factory was full of risks.
Industrialization also led to a response given by the working class, which wasn’t so grateful. During the years 1800, laborers saw little improvement in their living and working condition. They watched their livelihoods disappear as machines replaced them. People got angry and started smashing the machines they thought was putting them out of work. One group called the luddites were the once who attacked the whole factory in England.
Beside the problems that flowed industrialization, the industrial revolution had a numbers of positive effects. It created jobs for workers. It contributed to the wealth of the nation. It greatly increased the rate of production of goods. The most important it provided the hope of improvement in peoples lives.
