 | | And on the other hand, the distribution of landed property in France and Germany, which writer after writer points to as the great bulwark against revolution, is in the main due to a form of government that destroyed political liberty and placed the people in subjection to the throne. | | | The result of a closer examination of the question is a little startling, for we find that the present distribution of landed property in England is in the main due to the existence of the system of political government which has made us a free people. | | | Adam Smith had concentrated all his attention on a large production; Malthus directed his inquiries, not to the causes of wealth but to the causes of poverty, and found them in his theory of population. |

| | Industrial Revolution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Marx believed that the industrial proletariat would eventually develop class consciousness and revolt against the bourgeoisie, leading to a more egalitarian socialist and eventually Communist state where the workers themselves would own the means of industrial production. | | | For example, a group of English workers known as Luddites formed to protest against industrialization and sometimes sabotaged factories. | | | The causes of the Industrial Revolution were complex and remain a topic for debate, with some historians seeing the Revolution as an outgrowth of social and institutional changes brought by the end of feudalism in Great Britain after the English Civil War in the 17th century. |

| | The Industrial Revolution of the Eighteenth Century |
| | The nineteenth century saw the exporting of the Industrial Revolution to Europe in the decades after 1830, and the explosion of factory-based, technology driven manufacture. | | | Why other nations didn't initially join this revolution is in part explained by the monopolistic control that the Europeans exerted over the global economy. | | | This revolution involved more than technology; to be sure, there had been industrial "revolutions" throughout European history and non-European history. |

| | Whether this attribute has something to do with their "Protestant work ethic," as Max Weber put it, or with a specifically English trait is debatable, but the fact remains that English entrepreneurs had a much wider scope of activities than did their Continental counterparts at the same time. | | | Although the industrial revolution was clearly an unplanned and spontaneous event, it never would have been "made" had there not been men who wanted such a thing to occur. | | | There is no denying the fact that the Industrial Revolution began in England sometime after the middle of the 18th century. |

| | The Industrial Revolution |
| | The industrial workers had helped to pass the Reform Bill of 1832, but they had not been enfranchised by it. | | | First, industrialization called for the concentration of a work force; and indeed, the factories themselves were often located where coal or some other essential material was available, as the Ruhr in Germany and Lille in northern France. | | | This was true in western Europe as well as in America after the Second World War. |

| | THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION |
| | The term INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION originally referred to the developments that transformed Great Britain, between 1750 and 1830, from a largely rural population making a living almost entirely from agriculture to a town-centered society engaged increasingly in factory manufacture. | | | Other European nations underwent the same process soon thereafter, followed by others during the 19th century, and still others (such as Russia and Japan) in the the first half of the 20th century. | | | During certain periods in history, innovations in technology have grown at such a rapid pace that they have produced what have become known as industrial revolutions. |
