Industrialization or
Industrial Revolution
Objective: I can prove
industrialization had social,
political, and economic effects on
Western Europe and the World.
Understanding Industrialization
Did you ever try to make something by hand?
Maybe you have made a batch of cookies instead of
buying them at the store.
Or maybe you have given someone a handmade
greeting card, even though it would have been easier
to buy one.
Think of the advantages and disadvantages of making
something by hand versus buying something that is
manufactured and sold in a store.

UNDERSTANDING
INDUSTRIALIZATION
-Consider an item that is
carefully made by a skilled crafts
worker using simple hand tools
in a home workshop.
-The result is a one-of-a-kind
product.
-Making something by hand can
be difficult and time-consuming,
however, these two factors
make the product expensive.
Understanding Industrialization
Goods manufactured in a factory are made quickly.
They are uniform; that is, all the products are identical.
Instead of making an item from start to finish, individual
workers perform separate tasks in its production.
This is called specialization.
On an assembly line, a product moves from station to
station as workers at each station perform a different task
to help complete the product.
The resulting manufactured goods are inexpensive to produce when compared to
handmade goods.
During the Industrial Revolution, goods began to be
produced in factories by unskilled or semiskilled workers.

1 Question
The Industrial Revolution Begins
The Industrial Revolution was a period of technological
advancement and social change that dramatically
altered the way in which people lived and worked.
It began in England during the mid-1700s with the
introduction of new technology to the textile industry.
A textile is a woven material, or cloth.
Conditions that Aided the Industrial Revolution
A number of social, political, and economic
factors created the ideal conditions for
industrialization.
In England, these factors were 1) a growing and
shifting population, 2) an abundance of natural
resources, 3) a stable government, and 4) a
large supply of capital (money for investment).
Growing Population
During the 18th century, agricultural advancements in
Europe led to a food surplus (more than enough food).
Because food was plentiful, the population grew.
At the same time, advances in medicine led to a
declining death rate.
This also contributed to population growth.
The increase in population created an increased
demand for manufactured goods.
Population Shift
In addition to population growth, England experienced
a population shift as more people began to move from
the countryside to cities.
This rise in rural-to-urban migration was a result of the
enclosure movement.
Enclosure took place when landed aristocrats
enclosed, or fenced in, common land that peasants
had formerly used for farming and livestock.
This made it more difficult for peasants to make their
living.
Enclosure Movement
Population Shift
Enclosure became widely used in the
Netherlands during the 1600s.
During the 1700s, the practice became
common in England.
Enclosure resulted in more organized and
more productive farming, but the loss of land
forced many peasants to migrate to towns
and cities in search of work.
These displaced farmers eventually provided a
source of labor for manufacturing and mining.

Abundance of Natural Resources
-An abundance of natural
resources also contributed
industrialization in England.
-England had large supplies of
coal and iron ore.
-Engines and factory machines
were forged from iron.
-Coal was used to fuel steam
engines, the source of power for
the new factories.
Stable Government
In addition to the abundance of
resources, England had a stable
government.
Since it had not had a revolution
since 1688, people felt secure
doing business there.
Large Supply of Capital
England’s trade and the income it derived from
its colonial empire gave it a strong economy.
Many English people had enough money to
invest in new factories and businesses.
Since they felt financially secure, they were
often willing to try new ideas.
