England's Great Transformation
Author: Marc W. SteinbergPublisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022632995X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Marc W. Steinberg throws a wrench into our understanding of the English Industrial Revolution - largely revising the thesis of Karl Polanyi's landmark 'The Great Transformation'. The conventional wisdom has been that in the 19th century, England quickly moved toward a modern labour market where workers were free to shift from employer to employer in response to market signals. Expanding on recent historical research, Steinberg finds to the contrary that labour contracts, centred on insidious master-servant laws, allowed employers and legal institutions to work in tandem to keep employees in line.

Technology, Industrial Conflict and the Development of Technical Education in 19th-Century England
Author: Bernard P. CroninPublisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040290205
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 317
Book Description
This title was first published in 2001. Nineteenth-century employers played a crucial role in the training and education of young workers in England. This multi-disciplinary study traces the connection between problems of technical education development and the increasingly antagonistic relations with skilled workers, culminating in the Great Strike and Lockout of 1897. Cronin demonstrates that employers, dominated by economic short-termism, extended their hegemony beyond the boundaries of the factory gates. Their reluctance to endorse and sponsor technical education radically influenced the perception of technical education held by government and local authorities.
