machines and manufacturing. Even though our country is still founded and is comprised of some agricultural nature, especially in the south, but most of the lands that were used for just farming or housing was bought up by companies so they could build factories and build cities on them. This changed the economy by more input of money and gave many people jobs but it did take away the land we were used to live on as a country. As the land was being bought, cities were being built, and the…

The factory conditions reported by Bell are not much different than the labor conditions of Gail and Barbara at the Hearthside. Bell described factory work as long days filled with a lot of physical labor and hard work, which is similar to the strenuous labor Barbara accounts in her experiences in Nickel and Dimed. Paid at the…

result, women workers can be paid lower wages, be trained easily, and can accept the discipline of factory life easily (Reddy, 2007; Poster, 2001; Kerr, 1999; Elson and Pearson, 1981). All of these “merits” were favoured by the profit-chasing capitalism…

cultural icon to stand for Women’s rights and feminist efforts. Rosie reflects the conflicts and spirit of her time through her profession as a wartime riveter. She represents the housewives, secretaries, and childcare workers who were called to the factories during the war. She now represents a generation of “Rosie’s,” the women who worked in traditionally male-dominated fields during World War II. Although Rosie the Riveter did originate in posters, she has developed into her own character…

They both had prior experience of imitation. Japan had copied from China and Russia from Byzantium and the Mongols. They knew that learning from the West could be profitable and wouldn’t destroy their native cultures. In Japan, the Emperor Meiji sent out samurai to parts of the West to pick up ideas. Western style clothing such as ties, pants, and loafers replaced traditional samurai outfitting. Western hygiene including toothbrushes, vaccines and patent medicines were introduced and…

The Industrial Revolution, itself, had helped create many new inventions that made farming, writing, and traveling more easier for the people of the revolution. Although many children and factory workers faced many problems, it eventually led to the Factory Acts and the School Sites Acts, some of the greatest outcomes of the Industrial Revolution to have…

that manufactures received from using railroads. They truly depended on trains for all stages of a factories development: constructing the factory with imported steel and concrete, powering the factory with imported coal, exporting products from the factory, bringing employees to work, and taking waste to dump sites. It all required railroads and without the railroads there would’ve been no factories or industrial north. Trains carrying such a vast amount not only completed all these tasks but…

An advisory board meets with the chairman and president twice each month to fine tune operations, and Lincoln trusts its workers and does not micromanage them. Managers oversee around 100 workers each, so the factory employees operate with very little supervision. Although the managers have authoritarian power, there is an open-door policy which allows workers to reach specialized personnel without running through a chain of command. One might think that with…

the factory system.
