  1. Sum up each essay in 1-3 sentences.

    Living & Working; Family Time; New Kids.
  2. Describe working conditions early in the IndusRev, especially in factories and mines? WHY were they allowed to be so deplorable?
  3. Describe changes in urban law & order. How were these a response to urbanization, and what do they tell us about the expansion of state powers?
  4. Ricardo’s Iron Law of Wages (Trust me: this graph depicts Ricardo’s Iron Law of Wages.) What does the Iron Law of Wages say? How was his argument used? How could it be used in concert with Malthus’s ideas?
  5. How do these two graphs (do each one separately) tell the story of urbanization? What parts of the story DON’T they tell?
  6. Imagine you lived there. You and your partner come up with a description of your average day. How did the IR change family life? Think both work and leisure time. How did it change family structure?
  7. How did the IR change the lives of women? (and DON’T just say, “they got factory jobs and their family life changed.”) NO KIDDING?!?! Start with that, but GO DEEPER!!!
  8. Who were the New Industrialists? How did they make their money? How were they a challenge to the current economic structure of Europe (especially England)? Were they really as evil as they are often made out to be?
  9. What are the PoV’s of the two artists who drew these images? How do you know?
  10. What can you learn about the change over time in the lives of common people during the IR from the following graphs?

  12. Discuss the Public Health reading with your partner. Go through some of the questions, especially the “BIG PICTURE” one on the first page and the “government/people relationship” one on the fourth page. Then discuss the two cartoons.
  13. What was the point of the New Poor Law? How did it change the relationship between people and the government?
