美国工业革命早期的产业化与城市化进展迅速,特别是东北部及大西洋中部各州,使众多劳动者的工作条件与生活水平得到明显改善。轰轰烈烈的大生产也为妇女和儿童提供了就业机会。正如首任财政部长亚历山大·汉弥尔顿在为以制造业立国的方针进行辩护时所述:“自从妻子和女儿进厂做工后,农夫亲眼看到由于她们的辛勤劳动,家里又多了一个收入来源。”但因为越来越多的劳动者由个体经营转为被人雇用,大规模生产方式使他们感到工作环境变得缺乏人情味与亲切感,而大批欧洲移民的涌入使他们的收入和工作条件也受到冲击。随着工人运动浪潮的兴起,美国劳动者们为争取自己的权利进行了不懈的努力。
The rapid industrialization and urbanization in the early days of the industrial revolution in the United States, especially in the northeast and central and mid-Atlantic states, have greatly improved the working conditions and living standards of many workers. The vigorous mass production also provides employment opportunities for women and children. As the first Minister of Finance, Alexander Hamilton, stated in his defense of the policy of establishing manufacturing nationhood: “Since his wife and daughter came to work in the factory, the farmer saw for himself that there was more at home because of their hard work A source of income. ”" But as more and more workers are converted from self-employed to employed and mass production makes them feel a lack of human touch and intimacy in the workplace, the influx of large numbers of European immigrants puts them The income and working conditions are also hit. With the rise of the workers’ movement, American laborers made unremitting efforts for their own rights.
