No economic regulations: During the Victorian Age, there were no regulations regarding the economy and therefore employers could pay poorly and work their workers for 12+ hours. 

The combination of low pay, long hours, and child labor allowed employers to make big money while not passing it on to the worker. The time was marked by a belief in Social Darwinism, meaning people believed it was natural that some would be wealthy and some would be poor.

  • In countries where these ideas came later, they extend to the first half of the 19th century.
  • As a result, the Enlightenment transitions into sentimentalism and pre-romanticism. While classicism is turned to the past (and relies on unsurpassed role models), the Enlightenment is turned to the future, ready for change with a reliance on reason and critical thinking.
