2. Why do you think living standards were different during the first and second
industrial revolutions?
I believe that living standards differed between the first and
second industrial revolutions due to the available possibilities,
technology, and labors in each revolution. Those described
above differ in each revolution that resulted in a distinct
quality of existence. During first revolution, People were
struggling with bad working circumstances as a result of
industrialization, as well as unpleasant situations at home,
such as very little money, overburdened families, and
insufficient food. People working in factories during the
second industrial revolution had to battle for basic essentials
to survive. With cheap flimsy walls and crowds, there was
little privacy.
3. Who from amongst the persons mentioned did more contribution to the
development of the world ’s economy? Why?
Because Carnegie succeeded as an economic player, he
made a greater contribution to the growth of the world's
economy. His sensitivity to predicted profit prospects, as well
as his effectiveness in dealing with market uncertainty, gave
him a key impact on the establishment of many of the most
important sectors in the late-nineteenth-century United States
and global economies. His managerial and technological
contributions to better coordination of the actions of both
demanders and suppliers in those industries. Finally,
Carnegie's activities in distributing the vast personal fortune
he amassed while building his commercial empire are
reviewed and their economic repercussions are appraised.
4. Discuss the main similarity and difference of the two industrial revolutions
discussed therein.
The two industrial revolutions vary in that the first began in
Britain and led to factories and work, which were dominated
by textile and shipping factories. While the second revolution
began in the United States, which was largely an agrarian
nation after the Civil War. By the 1920s, the United States
had risen to become the world's dominant industrial power.
The key parallels, on the other hand, are that both revolutions
had profound influence on people's lives, both negatively and
positively. And both have a huge impact on society and
people.
5. What has led workers to seek workers’ rights during the first industrial
revolution?
Workers sought rights during the first revolution because
employees in factories, mills, and mines worked long hours
under hazardous circumstances. There were no safety
coverings or gates on the machines, and children as young
as 5 years old were working them. Every day, iron workers
toiled in temperatures of 130 degrees or greater. These are
the factors that prompted employees to demand workers'
rights.
