people started to have more free time\n\nthis is how materialism started because people could now create things to make life easier and they started making wants instead of just needs...

It increased productivity and led to increased wealth eventually as GDP per capita rose. This created the conditions for the rise of the middle class such as more professional and management jobs. In turn, bourgeois and mercantile views became more powerful as opposed to that of the aristocracy. This led to reforms as the Reform Act of 1832 shifting representation to the industrialised areas.

Try these.  I did a search in Google on "Education and the Industrial Revolution"  (don't forget the quotes in the search):\n\nhttp://www.umd.umich.edu/casl/hum/eng/classes/434/geweb/VICTORIA.htm\n\nhttp://victorianweb.org/technology/ir/4.html\n\nhttp://www.ncl.ac.uk/egwest/pdfs/Literacy%20and%20the%20Industrial%20Rev.pdf

I don't think this is a very good thesis. The UK was the first country to go from non-industrial to industrial, but the conditions then were very different from what they are now. An LEDC faces completely different conditions than the problems that Britain had to face back then.\n\nBut some things that were the same would be: poor transportation (in the early 1800s, not in 1900), uneducated workforce (although Britain had a fairly high literacy rate by 1900), poor power infrastructure, poor health care system, lack of reliable and stable democratic government (in early 1800s, not 1900)\n\nA widely recognized expert on this topic is E. J Hobshawm who wrote a book "Industry and Empire" specifically about this. If you need to do a term paper, that would be a good source.

It went through a tremendous transformation.  The lies of constant production resulting in needed constant obsolescence were largely developed then.  "A healthy economy" became defined as the rich getting richer.\n\nEngland and Europe ended owing American huge war debts and since their infrastructure was largely damaged Americans could sell almost anything they produced for several years after the war.

Actually YES! They still do even now and have allways been so during known human history. \nDuring the industrial revolution there were mainly two social classes: the owners of the land and means of production and the laborers.\nFirst there were the manufacturing workers. These were over-abused over exploited people, forced sometimes to work even 12 to 16 hours a day to earn their living. They wore plain cotton and linnen clothes, sometimes in the winter they also used woolen clothes. Since payment was very low and there was no actual compensation of the hard work, people had to primarily attend to their basic needs: home and food and there was often too little to be spent on clothing and footwear. Wooden sabots were often the basic footwear, with leather boots as a sign of distinction.\nJewels were rare and often included plain metal rings and earrings, or glass beads. Later on, as manufacturing developped, better clothing became more or less available for the masses as cotton and linnen clothes were cheaper and easier accessible.\nThen there were the agricultural workers whose status and quality of life differed and who often wore woollen garments made in house (knittings and sort) and also home made linnen. They too purchased cotton fabrics and also at times, more expensive cotton fabrics such as velvet for use in their sunday clothes.\nThe upper classes wore fashionable clothing, made from materials ranging from silk brocade, wool, cashmere, silk shirts and underwear. As allways, female clothing was extremely ellaborate and often, precious metal ornaments could be found even in footwear.\nWomen wore, in accordance to the occasion and weather a wide range of footwear, in all sorts of materials, from silk, embroidered brocade to high quality soft leather.

The process of replacing human handcraft or phisical work with the work of professional machines.It started during the 18th century with the Industrial Revolution in UK and then through out Europe and nowdays it means constantly replacing technology.

Some of us still do live by the natural rhythms of nature.Myself included.\nI think we started to turn away from this during the Industrial Revolution.Also the invention of the clock and the lightbulb contributed to it.

So many things happened in the 20th century!\n\nTechnology boomed: If you don't have a cell phone, TV, or computer, you're seen as primitive.\n\nCivil Rights were established:  Women are much more independent now and have more freedoms.  Same with minority groups.\n\nGo with history.  Whatever historical event was important, there are social changes to follow.

1. The turning point from rural to industrial economy\n2. automation, work less and achieve more. freedom (since engines were developed, slavery - the way people had it - was not needed!). More free time => more education. More cultural exchanges.

According to Wikipedia ....2!\n\n1) The Industrial Revolution was the major technological, socioeconomic and cultural change in late 18th and early 19th century Britain\n\n2)The second industrial revolution (1871–1914)is also called the second phase of the Industrial Revolution, since from a technological and a social point of view there is no clean break between the two.

These are very common subjects. You may consider doing research or checking class notes. For lack of that,\nthere was a big burst of industry after the civil war. Things became more advanced. More people moved to the United States and of course, emancipation of slaves had a great effect on the diversity of the population. Maybe these facts can help you to understand what sort of development you're looking for?\n\nSorry I couldn't be more helpful!

YOU NEED TO DO YOUR OWN HOMEWORK, but I'll do you a small favor....\n\nIn 1750, the world was known to be round.  In 1450, the world was widely and officially considered flat.\n\nNow, think of what historical incident brought about this change of thought.  You got it?  Good - now think about the fortunes of various peoples and nations WORLDWIDE that accrued from the historical incident you figured out.\n\nYou now have the makings of a brainstorm that will lead you to a theme, an outline, and an essay.

Ok, to summarize:\n\n1) Working Class: fewer jobs in rural areas, more in the cities, urban congestion results in higher rents, poorer standards of living, disease more easily spread.\n2) Middle Class: benefits the most, higher standards of living, greater social respectablility as income increases.\n3) Aristocracy: less control of cultural norms as middle class becomes much more prominent, loss of rural tenants and farmers as working class moves to the cities.\n\nThere is alot more to this, but this is what I remember off the top of my head. Hope it helps.

Most likely "world expansion".  If "industrial revolution" were a topic, that would be a better category.  The fire, which killed numerous women and children who worked in near forced labor conditions at the factory, was one of the worst industrial fires of all time.

there have been a number of reform movements in history.  the most likely ones you might be talking about are The Protestant Reformation or the social reform movement of the 19th century that followed on the heels of the industrial revolution.
