Q

Analyze how and why Western European attitudes toward children and child bearing changed in the period 1750 to 1900

A
  • going through industrial revolution
  • children were seen as negligent and discipline was servere.
  • Women had many children, however a lot of children were abandoned or would die; which •held back mothers from making close ties with their children.
  • Jean-Jacques Rousseau brought new ideas to families about children during pre-industrial Europe and not too much longer
  • Europe started to advance in technology and medicine which led mothers to have less children, abandonment rates went down, and •emotional ties between the child and mother grew.

• larger because agriculture was the primary way of making wages to survive on. In the rual areas,
• many women could not economically afford to raise a child.
•Abortion was illegal, therefore many rual mothers turned to infinticide.
•In the cities, women who could not raise a child put them in foundling homes.
Died in the fondling homes

In the 19th century little families
Advances in technology led to lower mortality rate
Rousseau’s attitude towards children and teaching methods inspired parents to be more involved in childrens lives. Once technological advances occurred, overall it seems as though mothers felt they were less likely to lose their child so they were more likely to be tender and caring towards their children.

Q

Analyze the development of the various forms of European socialism in the 1800s

A

Counter to liberalism was Socialism, which sought economic equality for all, and was very much against the Laissez Faire ideal of liberalism. Socialism looked at the free-market economies of Western Europe in the midst of the Industrial Revolution and saw exploited workers leading miserable existences while manufacturers profited enormously. Socialists felt that with the rich profiting so much, the poor should get some of the benefits, since worker’s labor supported the entire system. Socialists, therefore, wanted to nationalize parts of the economy, such as industrial and financial sectors, giving these areas of the economy over to government control. Thus, the benefits could be distributed more equally to the various members of society. For example, Robert Owen, a manufacturer in Manchester, grew upset at his worker’s living conditions and began paying higher wages then other manufacturers did, and he treated his workers well, counseling them against drinking and other vices. In fact, Owen did fairly well in business despite giving his workers a higher than ordinary wage. Owen wanted to continue reform, and eventually he became frustrated with the slow pace of change in Britain. In 1825, he founded New Harmony, Indiana, an experimental socialist community in the United States. Other leading socialist thinkers included the Frenchmen Saint-Simon and Charles Fourier. Fourier wanted to organize society into groups called “phalansteries”, in which everyone would be able to do whatever work they wanted and all be paid the same wages. Some phalansteries actually were set up in the United States.
