Developments in Western Europe that helped avoid Marxist revolution

}}Improving material conditions during the second half of the nineteenth century helped move the working-class movement in Britain, Germany, and elsewhere away from a revolutionary posture. Marx had expected industrial capitalist societies to polarize into a small wealthy class and a huge and increasingly impoverished proletariat. However, standing between “the captains of industry” and the workers was a sizable middle and lower middle class, constituting perhaps 30 percent of the population, most of whom were not really wealthy but were immensely proud that they were not manual laborers. Marx had not foreseen the development of this intermediate social group, nor had he imagined that workers could better their standard of living within a capitalist framework. But they did. Wages rose under pressure from unions; cheap imported food improved working-class diets; infant mortality rates fell; and shops and chain stores catering to working-class families multiplied. As English male workers gradually obtained the right to vote, politicians had an incentive to legislate in their favor, by abolishing child labor, regulating factory conditions, and even, in 1911, inaugurating a system of relief for the unemployed. Sanitary reform considerably cleaned up the “filth and stink” of early nineteenth-century cities, and urban parks made a modest appearance. Contrary to Marx’s expectations, capitalist societies demonstrated some capacity for reform.}}

COMMUNISM

China
North Korea
Vietnam
Loas
Cuba

Things aren’t getting better, so people were starting to fight back

<<WHY IS AMERICA NOT A PART OF THE COMMUNIST MOVEMENT??????!?!?!?<<

!!!check chart from comparing the russian industrialization to american industrialization!!!

2/27

Starts in Britain because they have coal and iron

Europe has a competitive spirit

Koran limits the middle eastern society and their advancements

[[%%KNOW THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT SAQ%%[[

nasty coal in the air
global warming
dangerous fumes being inhaled by factory workers

Sugar comes from the caribbean

Railroad was a symbol of the industrial revolution

Upper middle class included wealthy factory and mine owners, bankers, and merchants who had gained great power politically

Proletariat- Laboring class to Karl Marx

The wives are not their when their husbands come home and so they drink alcohol and the wives when coming home from work end up getting beaten and domestic violence was very high amount the proletariat

Karl Marx puts the bourgase as the Upper class

Proletariat will become the owners of the factories and determine how much they get paid and that they will pay themselves high

He demands that this WILL happen, not that it might

He didn’t see unions and political parties for the proletariat

All white men can vote because of the political parties made

Unions represent men

Europeans are going to America because there was a demand of labor and cheap land

There was a %%rumor%% from ireland that there was good work, good cheap land, and good pay thats a lie

tsar has power over all of the people ( holding russia back )

The power of US is in the people ( democratic republic ) and Russia had the power in the hands of the tsar ( one person )

Russia’s government pays for their industrialization while the US pays for their own ( capitalism )

Railroads = Iron Horse

Monopolies were given tax breaks by the government because their inventions gave the government more power and wealth

you had to order things from catalogs

3/1

Adam smith WAS capitalist

government should not be involved at all with business no laws for any industry

NO agencies ,rules, and regulations

How economy will thrive

Laissez-faire capitalism - when government is hands off of trade and industry

Adams smith would say that government should not have to go into different meat companies and they should just read the Jungle and be disgusted and no one will by meat and when they aren’t buying then the industry will change so they are.

Invisible hand - consumers will drive the change

RUssia

Zero creativity with one hand on the wheel ( czar /tsar)

Trans-Siberian Railroad made economic transportation faster and more efficient

Russia really didn’t have much money

They got money from other countries in foreign investments

investments means that the other people( the other countries whom payed ) got more money back from their investments

Problems with Industrialization

labor force was untrained
Diseases
agricultural methods were still backwards
[[city life was miserable
(filthy and crammed homes, 13-hour workdays, disrespectful supervisors)[[

SIMILARITY

some accepted socialism in hopes of change for workers

Russian Social-Democratic Labor Party was illegal but fought for workers’
education, union organizing, and revolutionary action
[[%%insurrection erupted in 1905: workers’ strikes, peasant uprisings, student demonstrations, military mutinies (Russia was humiliated following defeat in the Russo-Japanese War that had just ended: growing unrest in Russia)%%[[
Humiliation in Russia cause they couldn’t beat Japan
They turned to the government to be like what went wrong dude

[[%%CAUSE OF 1905 was the loss of Russia against Japan and the terrible working conditions of people%%[[

The monarch only gave people what they wanted after the revolts

results:

- political parties came out of hiding

- tsar’s regime changed

[[- granted a constitution[[

[[- legalized both trade unions and political parties[[

- permitted the election of a national assembly (Duma)

- plans were made for universal primary education

the changes were too late impact:
workers went on strike
revolutionary groups (socialists, etc) organized and promoted change
the world’s first socialist society (inspired by Karl Marx) emerged in 1917 with the
Russian Revolution
[[led by Vladimir Lenin, the most radical social group (the Bolsheviks) took power[[

[[*ONLY in Russia was industrialization associated with VIOLENT social revolution![[

Only in Russia do we associate industrialization with VIOLENCE

Market Saturation - when the volume of a product or service in a marketplace has been maximized

Imperialism is an effect of Industrialization

LATIN AMERICA

even with an export boom, there was no industrial revolution in Latin America

Why?

1) a huge lower class population- no real market for manufactured goods

2) investment in manufacturing did not appeal to landowners and cattlemen

(made money exporting agricultural goods- so why bother to industrialize?)

3) no tariffs on imports, making imported goods very cheap for all

4) too dependent on European and North American prosperity and decisions

(example: the US-owned United Fruit Company in Central America drove

decision-making in the area)

- by 1850 a boom in exports helped spur the economy

(exported silver, copper, tin, guano, nitrates, rubber, bananas, coffee, cacao, sugar)

- imports came from Europe and the US

(imported textiles, machinery, tools, weapons, and luxury goods)

- Railroads! Built to get goods to the coast to be exported

* All was progress in the eyes of elites in Latin America

(elites wanted to be advanced like Europe and US)

Banana Republic was oppression

3/2

Latin America can’t be cool like Europe

They don’t have a strong economy

A very small population of the people of LA could indulge it what they actually wanted

Caudillo : military or political leader ( gained control of government after the independence movement )

Power is in the hands of the people in Europe’s

In LA they have dictators that wouldn’t let them do certain things

Mexican Revolution

Lower class whom feels cheated with the middle class and they joined to overthrow their dictator

Goal : Take land from rich and give to the poor

With the Middle class there is more hope financially and more intelligence ( better hopes )

Results: a new constitution that…

1) gave universal male suffrage

2) redistributed land \n <<%%3) stripped the Catholic Church of public education power and land%%<<

4) workers gained rights (minimum wage and 8-hour work days)

- but at what cost? 1 million dead - 10% of the population

working conditions in textile mills and mines were horrible
(long work hours, low wages, workers had to pay for the normal depreciation of machinery they used)
children (ages 8 and 9) performed physically demanding work
strikes were illegal
all written pamphlets distributed among workers had to be approved
<<h%%igh paying managerial jobs were given to Americans, not qualified native Mexican laborers ( NO JUSTIFICATION )%%<<
==middle class reformers, workers, and peasants overthrew the dictator (Porfirio Diaz)==
a decade of bloody conflict: 10% of the population died
%%Diaz was ousted under the charismatic leadership of Pancho Villa and Emiliano Zapata%%
<<women were active in the revolution: many fought!<<
- Wore men’s clothing to participate in the revolution
