Question

A) The market revolution of the first half of the nineteenth century occurred as a result of new developments in transportation and manufacturing. Using specific examples, analyze how the market revolution produced changes in TWO of the following areas:
Labor

Social organization and migration

Economic development

B) Choose one of the above areas and explain how the market revolution contributed to a continuity.

Answer 1

I think it’s economic development

Answer 2

Answer: A. Labor - The market revolution sparked explosive economic growth and new personal wealth. It affected the lives of workers by giving them jobs. It did bring them from skilled labor to cheap labor though. There were far more immigrants in the North than in the South because there were more job opportunities due to there being less slaves.

Social organization and migration - The Market Revolution sparked social change in many ways. Cities grew, factories sprouted and immigration increased. Not to mention that transportation routes and means of transport underwent dramatic changes, greatly increasing national mobility. New and improved transportation technology made it easier and faster to transport goods: first national roads, then canals, and finally the railroad revolution.

B. Labor-saving technology improved efficiency and enabled the separation of the public and domestic spheres. The market revolution fulfilled the revolutionary generation’s expectations of progress but introduced troubling new trends. Class conflict, child labor, accelerated immigration, and the expansion of slavery followed. These strains required new family arrangements and transformed American cities.

Explanation: I'd recommend adding onto B, but I'm pretty confident about A. I hope this helps. :3
