Founders’ Ideas on Early American Society & Economy
Jefferson• Agricultural society is best• Farmers more pure and moral• “Labourers in the earth are chosen
people of god”• Keep manufacturing in Europe• Industrial workers are dependent,
bad manners• Strong republic based on
independent farmers• Anti-urban philosophy• Anti-Federalist• republican• Democratic-Republican
Hamilton• Pro-manufacturing• Federalist• Supports strong federal
govt.– Defense– Pro-national bank

Part I: Industrial Revolution in Britain, 1760-1850
• What shape did industrial development take in Britain?
• What advantages did Britain have that made it the center of I.R.?– Water, coal for power– Artisans to build machines– Available labor – why?– Raw materials – from where?– Markets for sales – where?

Making the FactoryDefinition: “The term factory, in technology, designates the combined operation of many orders of workpeople, adult and young, in tending with assiduous skill a system of productive machines continuously impelled by a central power.”
Andrew Ure, Philosophy of Manufactures (1835), 13

• Power machinery, introduced process-by-process over about 100 years
• Capital costs• Location• Structure• Continuous operation • (with people around)• Need for new skills, esp. machine
builders and repairmen

Factory Discipline• Emphasis on Profit • Higher profits = discipline
– long workday of continuous labor by all hands
– regular attendance– punctuality and sobriety– attentiveness to task– continual industry by schedule (eat, relieve self, work when you
don't feel well)– no rowdiness, distracting conversation, wandering away from
machine– no rebellion against authority or conditions

What Came before Industrial Revolution?:
Previous Forms of Production• Medieval Guilds: secret knowledge of arts
and crafts• Household production: production of cloth
and textiles, shoes, and other goods within household
• System of master, apprentice, family labor• Had control over pace of work, seasonal,
took on as much work as necessary at a time
![Page 14: An Atlantic Industrial Revolution](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051518/56815e05550346895dcc4fab/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
From Household to FactoryHousehold production:
Why do people like towork from home in today’s society?
Spinning wheel; making yarn at home

The U.S. Experience• Textiles first• New England, NY, PA• Merchant capital• Stole British technology• Women from farm
families – “mill girls”• Cotton from southern
slave plantations• Made cheap clothing
for middle, working classes, and slaves
![Page 17: An Atlantic Industrial Revolution](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051518/56815e05550346895dcc4fab/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Textiles in North Carolina• Many companies moved
from north for cheaper labor
• Closer to cotton grown by slaves, then farmers & sharecroppers
• Textile labor: typically white women, children, and families
• Racially segregated• Agreement between white
owners and white workers to exclude black workers from factory work and relatively better pay

Summary of British Industrial Rev.• A new type of manufacturing based on control
and supervision of workforce within new factory worksite.
• Higher profit margins based on control of work pace, wages per hour, and separation of workers from other alternatives of support
• Use of new machine technologies, organization, finances (capital)
• Different forms of opposition to industrial work by early generations of workers
![Page 25: An Atlantic Industrial Revolution](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051518/56815e05550346895dcc4fab/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Slavery and industrial society overlapped.
How were they connected?
What effects did slave systems have on American industrial society and working
class?

Connections
• How was the Atlantic plantation system connected to I.R. in Europe and U.S.?
• Was the sugar plantation “industrial”?• Were slaves “workers”?• Was the trade in slaves “industrial” in
nature?• What, besides technology and wages,
defined the Industrial Revolution?

Consumption, Production, Finance
• Relationship between new forms of industry and new forms of consumption
• New forms of popular consumption fueled and reinforced the development of industrial production – slave and free
• New forms of banking, finance, insurance to fund and secure Atlantic trade
• Examples: sugar plantations, rum, coffee, tea, tobacco, cotton
![Page 41: An Atlantic Industrial Revolution](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051518/56815e05550346895dcc4fab/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

New Forms of Consumption
• Cheap sugar, textiles, guns, rum• Not just for royalty anymore• Growing middle-class conspicuous consumption• But also working-class consumption• Coffee houses – places to talk politics• Sugar – cheap calories for factory workers• Cheap goods for Atlantic Trade• New consumption patterns tightened
relationships, both positive and negative

Atlantic Resistance to Power?
• Pirates represent rare form of interracial lower-class solidarity who fought Atlantic industrial system
• Problem of racism - usually divided white working-class from slaves and free blacks in Atlantic world
• White workers defined as not slaves• Whites gained prestige, small level of
comfort & consumption, wages for not being slaves
![Page 46: An Atlantic Industrial Revolution](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051518/56815e05550346895dcc4fab/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Popular Resistance
• There were a variety of popular responses by people around the Atlantic in times of economic change– During feudalism– Reused during transition to industrial
economy– Used to attack or undermine authority of
masters (of different kinds – slave masters, industrial owners, middle class)
![Page 47: An Atlantic Industrial Revolution](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051518/56815e05550346895dcc4fab/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Mumming and MasqueradeMumming was tradition of masquerade in feudal and modern Europe

History of Public Resistance and Performance
• Context of owner surveillance and control – attempts to limit gatherings in groups, fear of slave revolt
• Slaves, free blacks, post-slavery black Americans celebrated Emancipation Day as reminder of continued fight for racial, social, and economic equality
• Claiming public sites or spaces when they did not have any formal power or rights
• Examples– John Canoe or Jonkonnu– Pinkster and Negro Election Day– Public religious, political, musical expression
• Often poked fun at whites through dress and mimicry

Everyday acts of resistance – What are they talking about?
![Page 54: An Atlantic Industrial Revolution](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051518/56815e05550346895dcc4fab/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Slavery in Age of Revolution• Revolutionary and Enlightenment beliefs had great
impact on slavery – liberty, freedom, equality, natural rights
• Adam Smith – free labor and markets are best• Lord Dunmoore – slaves would be freed if they fought for
Brits during Am. Revolution• Some upper south owners freed slaves after Am.
Revolution • Northwest Ordinance, 1787 – slavery banned from NW
territory• Gradual Emancipation in northern states in late 18th- and
early 19th centuries
![Page 55: An Atlantic Industrial Revolution](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051518/56815e05550346895dcc4fab/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Resistance: Atlantic Abolitionists
• Britain developed strong abolitionist movement• Quakers in 18th and 19th centuries• William Wilberforce and reformers in Parliament –
British slave trade abolished, 1807• Abolition of slavery in colonies, 1830s• Strong working-class support for abolition,
despite fears of textile unemployment• British: if they could abolish slavery, then it was
right thing for U.S. to do• Advocated “free trade” and “free labor” instead of
slave labor• Critics of “free labor” said it wasn’t truly free either
![Page 56: An Atlantic Industrial Revolution](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051518/56815e05550346895dcc4fab/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Abolition: Common White Fears
• Abolition raised questions and fears about ex-slaves– Are blacks capable of being free?– Can they live peacefully with whites?– Will they work if not forced to? – assumed they
were naturally lazy– Will they work for wages?– Will they assimilate into society?– Fears of sexual relations with whites – racial
mixture

French and Haitian Revolutions
• Circulation of revolutionary ideals throughout Atlantic
• Impact of French Rev. on slaves in Haiti and other Atlantic slave societies
• Haitian Revolution, 1791-1804: only successful slave revolt

Zombies: Atlantic Radicals?• Product of Atlantic economic, social, and cultural
history and connections• Loosely based on West African and Haitian
vodun (voodoo) religious practices, combined with Christian and other influences
• Africa – Caribbean – Britain – U.S. – World • Stories and myths - critical of power, control,
loss of freedom• Began under slavery • Emancipation as evolving issue – new forms of
power and control – wage labor, colonialism, Jim Crow, Cold War,…

Summarize Major Issues that Defined Atlantic Industrial World
• Production for profit• Control and discipline of work• Control of time• Control of space• Movement and trade of primary resources
in exchange for finished industrial goods• Growth of middle classes in ports and
industrial centers• Growth of working-class/slave populations
![Page 69: An Atlantic Industrial Revolution](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051518/56815e05550346895dcc4fab/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Connections– New forms of power, control, and profit in the Atlantic
World– Connections between slavery and industrial capitalism– Popular forms of resistance to power and economic
exploitation– Wage labor developed within context of Atlantic Economy
