![]() This idea goes hand in hand with what Engels sees as the negative effects of industrialization, most likely because he believes the former has led to the latter. He also sees it as a negative because it has led to urbanization, which is detrimental to the health and living conditions of the working classes. He views industry owners as exploitative "bad guys" who care about profits but not the workers' wellbeing. He sees the industrialization of England as a wholly negative occurrence, because of the way in which the working class are exploited. Engels disputes that any ot these things were actually progress. Its positives are many transportation links improve, processes become more mechanized which in many cases make jobs easier - an example of this being the Spinning Jenny which enabled workers to weave larger textiles more quickly and in a less labor-intensive way - and it also offered more job opportunities. He does not see it as something that furthers society. ![]() We are thankful for their contributions and encourage you to make your own.Įngels presents industrialization as something negative, rather than as the positive and progressive time that it is believed to have been.
