Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents the industrial changes that occurred at the time of the Industrial Revolution in England from a different aspect, focusing on the detailed history of particular bodies of skilled workers during those changes. It reveals that during this era, the struggles of the working class were not merely about religion or rival claims of Parliament and Crown. Instead, it was a more fundamental struggle over whether the mass of the English people were to lose the last vestiges of initiative and choice in their daily lives. All over Europe, workers had lost certain customary rights and privileges that provided a measure of freedom in their lives and some say in how their daily work was organized. But the author shows that in England the loss of these rights was particularly acute and devastating because it destroyed the last vestiges of the old village economy, where a man had some kind of holding and independence of his own. The book brings this struggle to life through a series of case studies of skilled workers in a variety of industries, including miners, cotton workers, wool workers, and silk weavers. These case studies provide a vivid picture of the lives of these workers and the challenges they faced. It also sheds new light on the development of capitalism in England and the ways in which the owners of capital were able to control the productive energy of the many. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781333592028_0
