Dangerous Low pay Long hours Child labor
• Said capitalism is doomed• Working class people will revolt and take
control• Predicted a classless society where everyone
will be equal (pure communism)• Wrote his ideas in The Communist Manifesto
& Das Kapital (father of communism)
• Capitalism-private ownership of business-free enterprise – competition-“laissez faire” = govt. keep hands off-Social Darwinism – survival of the fittest
• Socialism (pure communism)-major businesses are owned, managed, and controlled by the workers
• Communism-government controls all industry and
owns almost all property
Why didn’t this happen???
• Workers went on strike to get better working conditions
• Labor unions formed protecting the workers• Governments passed laws to protect workers
VI. FACTS!!!
Most people now work outside their home & in the city
People now live by the ticking of the clock (time schedule)
-life becomes much faster paced
Domestic vs Factory System
Sooo…England and eventually most of the world went from the Domestic to the Factory system way of life
Domestic system= system where products were made by hand in the home
Factory system= system of making products by machines in factories
