THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
THE ORIGINAL ACCUMULATION
The entry into Europe of huge amounts of precious metals from America and the benefits of the slave trade and trade in the world system, produced in the northern countries what Marx called "original accumulation."
THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
The Industrial Revolution is the change experienced in production conditions due to the introduction of machinery, initially moved to Steam, which replaced manual labor.
PROTESTAN REFORMATION
The change brought about by Reformed Protestantism: the separation of Catholics from the Church of hundreds of thousands of Christians, especially in central and northern Western Europe, who established private churches without obedience to the Pope.
The German Martin Luther (1483-1546) had a prominent role, he questioned the papacy and corruption in Rome for the practice of selling indulgences.
IRON, STEAM AND MACHINES
The mechanization of the textile industries, the development of iron processing, and the introduction of the steam engine were three pillars of the Industrial Revolution.
1733: The first step was the flying shuttle, patented that year by British inventor John Kay.
The Spinning Jenny, the eight-reel spinning machine, invented around 1764 by the Englishman James Hargreaves, drastically reduced the amount of work required.
THE DEVELOPMENT OF CAPITALISM
This growth was possible thanks to the original accumulation of capital and the reinvestment of the profits of private entrepreneurs, who expanded their facilities to generate more growth.
The labor required by the industries was available in the large neighborhoods of the main cities. The workers worked very long hours, 14 or 16 hours, with low wages. Children and women were employed to pay even less.
