Political Impacts of the Industrial Revolution

As the nineteenth century progressed, social protest increased among the working class. Many workers campaigned not only for better working conditions but also for the right to vote and the right to unionize. In the mid-nineteenth century, middle- and upper-class men were permitted to vote, but working-class men were not. Unionization, which is the process of organizing workers to bargain for better working conditions and pay collectively, was still illegal. In addition to protests and strikes, some workers, known as Luddites, became resistant to industrialization as they observed many of its ill effects.
