Which product was moved from South to North in United states during the 19th century?
Korolek [52]

Answer:

The late 19th-century United States is probably best known for the vast expansion of its industrial plant and output. At the heart of these huge increases was the mass production of goods by machines. This process was first introduced and perfected by British textile manufacturers.

In the century since such mechanization had begun, machines had replaced highly skilled craftspeople in one industry after another. By the 1870s, machines were knitting stockings and stitching shirts and dresses, cutting and stitching leather for shoes, and producing nails by the millions. By reducing labor costs, such machines not only reduced manufacturing costs but lowered prices manufacturers charged consumers. In short, machine production created a growing abundance of products at cheaper prices.

Mechanization also had less desirable effects. For one, machines changed the way people worked. Skilled craftspeople of earlier days had the satisfaction of seeing a product through from beginning to end. When they saw a knife, or barrel, or shirt or dress, they had a sense of accomplishment. Machines, on the other hand, tended to subdivide production down into many small repetitive tasks with workers often doing only a single task. The pace of work usually became faster and faster; work was often performed in factories built to house the machines. Finally, factory managers began to enforce an industrial discipline, forcing workers to work set hours which were often very long.

One result of mechanization and factory production was the growing attractiveness of labor organization. To be sure, craft guilds had been around a long time. Now, however, there were increasing reasons for workers to join labor unions. Such labor unions were not notably successful in organizing large numbers of workers in the late 19th century. Still, unions were able to organize a variety of strikes and other work stoppages that served to publicize their grievances about working conditions and wages. Even so, labor unions did not gain even close to equal footing with businesses and industries until the economic chaos of the 1930s.

Both Marx and Hegel agreed that one of the following was inimical to building the ideal society. Which one of
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. Both Marx and Hegel agreed that competition was inimical to building the ideal society.

Explanation:

Marx and Hegel were the main ideological drivers of communism, beginning to develop this political theory in the 1800s. Both were based on the belief that a perfect society should be homogeneous, that is, without social classes or distinctions among its members. Therefore, they sought the rupture of the concept of social classes, thus achieving a single uniform and egalitarian class where all its members would have the same rights and obligations: the working class. In order to achieve its objective, it was necessary to break the competitive thinking of capitalism, to reach a criterion of collaboration and community, where the means of production and the applied workforce were a common good, and not an object that became in reason of fight between the members of society.
