During the 19th century, London grew enormously as a center of trade and industry. Thousands migrated to the city seeking work, but found terrible conditions in the factories. Children often had dangerous jobs, and workers lived in poverty with low wages and poor housing. The poor were helped by workhouses, but they provided little beyond basic shelter and food. Some Victorian reforms aimed to help the poor, like orphanages and the Salvation Army, but poverty remained a major problem.

During the 19th century, London grew enormously as a center of trade and industry. Many poor families migrated to the city for work but faced terrible living and working conditions with low wages, overcrowded housing, and dangerous jobs. Reformers like Dickens brought attention to the plight of the poor, while charities like those started by Barnardo and Booth attempted to help those without homes or means of support. Despite some social reforms under Queen Victoria, poverty remained a major problem in 19th century London.The Push Factors, Pull Factors, and Methods of Latter-day Saint Emigration in...

The document discusses the rise of cities and urbanization in England during the Industrial Revolution. It describes how cities like London grew rapidly as people migrated to find work. This led to overcrowding and poor living conditions in slums. Attempts were made to address housing and transportation issues through new developments like garden cities and the London Underground railway. The document also examines marginal groups that emerged in cities like criminals, women, and children workers. It analyzes how urban living transformed family structures and the roles of men and women. Leisure activities and political mobilization in cities are also summarized.London

Cities developed as centers of political power, trade, industry and intellectual activity that supported diverse social groups. Industrialization in England led to rapid urban growth, with cities like London attracting large migrant populations to work in factories. This increased overcrowding and poor living conditions in urban areas. Attempts were made to address issues like housing, transportation, and public health through planned development of garden cities, expansion of the London Underground, and slum clearances. However, industrialization also transformed social structures, loosening family ties and encouraging individualism. Cities offered both opportunity and threat, with their large populations able to mobilize for political causes.Nineteenth century history and culture

1) In 1800, England had a population of 10-12 million people with 1 million living in London. Other major cities included Liverpool, Birmingham, and Manchester which grew due to industries like mining, textiles, and manufacturing.
2) Coal and cotton were major exports and imports, powering England's economy. The population shift to cities after 1800 as factories replaced cottage industries.
3) In 1800, 75% of the population was illiterate. Factory work created a domestic servant class with very low wages to support the rising middle class. Lower classes faced poverty and oppression.The years of self confidence

The document summarizes law and order in Britain during the Age of Reform. Crime increased as cities grew and unemployment rose, centered in slum areas called "rookeries". Night watchmen and parish constables policed rural areas. In 1829, Sir Robert Peel established the Metropolitan Police Force to police London's streets. Crime rates decreased with expanded police forces by 1900. Prison reform efforts, led by Elizabeth Fry, sought to improve conditions for female prisoners at Newgate prison through schooling, work programs, and inspections. "Jack the Ripper" murdered five prostitutes in London in 1888 but was never identified.Victorianism

The Victorian Era saw major social, economic, and technological changes in England. Industrialization moved many women into paid work and expanded the voting rights for males. Intellectually, Darwin's theory of evolution was influential and education was seen as a path out of poverty. However, living conditions were difficult, with long work days, child labor, unsafe housing, and lack of sanitation in cities. Women had limited roles and rights, though access to education was growing. Debates addressed women's place in society and politics.Unit 5.3 social reforms

The Victorian era in England was a time of great contrasts, as the country experienced rapid industrialization and scientific advancement alongside widespread poverty. Queen Victoria ruled from 1837 to 1901 during the height of the British Empire. Notable developments included the growth of cities and factories during the Industrial Revolution, major scientific and medical discoveries, and the works of prominent English writers like Charles Dickens. However, social classes remained deeply divided, as the working classes and poor faced difficult living and working conditions. Women also experienced inequality and lacked many legal rights during this traditional period of English history.Economic Disparity in Victorian England

Squatting became most prevalent in the UK in the 1960s and 1970s, especially in London. Common squatters were usually middle-class students and bohemians. Squatting went against the British tradition of patience and waiting one's turn for housing. In the 1960s, the Communist party called for a mass squatting movement to occupy private property. The Labour government's strategy of building council houses was initially successful but resulted in a surplus of unoccupied homes. American suburban ideals are said to have influenced many British people to abandon cities like Notting Hill, leaving houses empty for squatters. Today, squatting is illegal in Scotland but a civil issue in England and Wales, and there are debates around changing laws due to tensionsThe Victorian Period

The first humans settled in the area half a million years ago during warmer periods between ice ages. The Romans established settlements during their occupation of Britain. Wandsworth developed as medieval villages and grew during Tudor times due to its proximity to London. The area saw expansion in the 18th century with the construction of bridges and major buildings. During the Industrial Revolution, factories and industries developed in Wandsworth. The population increased dramatically in the Victorian era and 20th century, and Wandsworth merged with Batter1. population

The population of Britain exploded between 1750-1900 due to increasing birth rates, decreasing death rates, and immigration. Birth rates increased as people married younger and had more children they could send to work. Death rates declined due to innovations like vaccination, cleaner cities with water/sewers, and less alcohol consumption. Immigration from Eastern Europe also contributed, especially Jews fleeing persecution who lived in poverty in London's East End. This rapid population growth strained towns, as seen in the 1840 report noting sewage/health problems from neglecting infrastructure for the masses living in poor conditions.Work, life & leisure part 2

The Industrial Revolution led to the development of modern football in several ways:
1) Long workdays in factories left little free time for recreation, but sports were promoted by authorities to ensure workers remained physically able to perform jobs.
2) New laws in the 1850s limited child labor and established weekends, creating more leisure time.
3) There were calls to fund public open spaces and healthy activities to improve workers' lives and maintain industrial progress.
4) Traditional violent folk football evolved into an organized sport played according to rules on designated fields, engaging workers in constructive recreation.Work life and leisure cities in the contemporary world.ppt

The document discusses the Victorian era in Britain under Queen Victoria from 1837 to 1901. It describes the industrial revolution which transformed Britain's cities and economy. London in particular grew enormously but this also led to widespread poverty and overcrowded slums without sanitation in East London. In the late 1880s, these slums of Whitechapel became notorious as the site of the unsolved serial murders committed by "Jack the Ripper" who killed and mutilated 5 prostitutes over a few weeks, though police investigations could not determine the killer's identity. The mystery of who Jack the Ripper was remains unsolved.Introduction to the victorian Exp sl

Beginning in the late 1800s, most immigrants coming to the U.S. were from southern and eastern Europe. Immigrants lived in their own separate neighborhoods and kept many of their former traditions. Immigration led to a massive increase in the number of slums and tenement buildings in U.S. cities. Workers blamed immigrants for low wages or shortages of employment. A resentment of foreigners crept into Americas attitudes.Life Industrial Revolution

Charles Booth, a successful British businessman, created a map in the late 1800s that showed levels of poverty in London. Booth believed official estimates underestimated poverty levels. His own research revealed that as many as one-third of Londoners lived in poverty, even worse than reported. Booth's map used color coding to represent varying degrees of poverty. His in-depth study took into account many social factors and helped reveal the true extent of poverty in London.Ways of the world presentation

- 1. LONDON IN DICKENSS TIME
- 2. Great Britain was a very important, rich nation in the middle of nineteenth century. London was one of the biggest and most powerful cities in Europe.
- 3. Merchants and professionals became part of the new high society. They were well educated and lived in beautiful houses with servants.
- 4. During the Industrial Revolution thousands of people came from all over the country. Adults and children found work in the factories in terrible conditions.
- 5. 油 The biggest impact on the growth of London was the coming of the railroad in the 1830s which displaced thousands of people and accelerated the expansion of the city.油 The price of this explosive growth and domination of world trade was untold misery and dirt .
- 6. Children often did the most dangerous work, for example: chimney sweepers. There were many accidents at work. Workers made very little money and lived in small, dark houses.
- 7. The workhouse was little more than a prison for the poor. Civil liberties were denied, families were separated, and human dignity was destroyed. Dickens, because of the childhood trauma caused by his father's imprisonment for debt and his consignment to the blacking factory to help support his family, was a true champion to the poor.
- 8. The streets were dirty and narrow. Some people had no work and no home. They became beggars or criminals. The Poor Law of 1598-1601 (changed in 1834) obligated the local priets to take care of the poor in his area.
- 9. The Poor Law of 1601 made no mention of workhouses, but it did place a legal responsibility on each parish to care for those within its boundaries who, because of age or infirmity, were unable to work. The workhouse system began to evolve in the 17th century as a way for parishes to reduce the cost to ratepayers of providing poor relief.
- 10. The people in the workhouse did unpleasant jobs in return for a little food and some shelter. They were usually hungry, cold and often ill.
- 11. Some rich Victorians wanted to help the poor. In London Dr Thomas Barnardo established a home for orphan boys in 1870.
- 12. William and Catherine Booth created the Salvation Army in 1878 to help poor, hungry people. Today the Salvation Army is an international organisation.
- 13. There were several social reforms during Queen Victorias reign, but poverty was a big problem during the nineteenth century.
