Title |
Social and Cultural Historical Dimensions of Industrial Work. An Introduction to Business History |
Description |
Industrialization had a fundamental impact on working conditions. Factories required new ways of organizing labour and embedding economic life into society. The breakthrough of wage labour resulted in a new relation between men and women. With the emergence of limited companies and manager-led corporations, industrial production was accompanied by new forms of businesses. Industrial plants, however, were not merely sites in which raw materials were transformed into products by machines and manual work to achieve financial gains. The were also fields of social interaction, shaped by subtile power relations and cultural codes. Newer approaches of business history and the history of capitalism focus on such developments; by doing so, they connect economic history to social, cultural, gender and environmental history. |
