Excerpt from The Human Element in Economics

Even more revolting are the descriptions written of the conditions that surrounded the lives of the mine workers in the early part of the nineteenth century. Women as well as men were taken into the mines, and there subjected-to the most fearful hardships. In some cases, as the reports of the Parliamentary investigation showed, the women dragged thecars through passageways that were too low to admit of the use of ponies or mules.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complexities of industrialism and its impact on human life, offering a powerful critique of the rise of the machine age in 19th-century England. The author explores the transition from a pre-industrial world of handcraftsmanship to one dominated by factories and mass production, examining how this shift affected workers, particularly children, who were often subjected to brutal conditions and exploitation. The bookâ� �s vivid descriptions of these realities expose the stark inequalities that arose alongside the burgeoning wealth generated by industrialization. The author goes on to discuss the development of factory legislation and the growing awareness of the social costs of industrial progress. The book argues that the machine, while capable of increasing productivity and creating unprecedented levels of wealth, can also serve as a tool for exploitation, leading to the dehumanization of labor. The book concludes by examining the inadequate wages paid to workers in the face of the enormous wealth created by their labor, emphasizing the need for a more just and equitable economic system that prioritizes the well-being of all members of society. This thought-provoking work offers a timeless analysis of the challenges and contradictions inherent in industrial capitalism.
