Excerpt from Modern Industry: In Relation to the Family, Health Education, Morality Modern industry affords, in more generous measure tan the human race has before known them, all those goods which form the material basis of family life - food, clothing, shelter, and the materials and opportunities for subsistence for husband, wife and children. But modern industry tends to disintegrate the family, so threatens it that the civilized nations are, and for at least one generation have been, actively building a code intended to save the family from this destructive pressure. This is the paradox of Modern Industry. It is my object to illustrate this paradox by indicating some forms of the pressure of industry upon the family, and upon each of its elements.

"Women in Modern Industry" by B. L. Hutchins is a book that gives a sketch or outline of the position of working women, with special reference to the effects of the industrial revolution on her employment, taking "industrial revolution" in its broader sense, not as an event of the late eighteenth century, but as a continuous process still actively at work. The author has aimed at description rather than theory. Some of the current theories about women's position are of great interest, and he makes no pretense to an attitude of detachment in regard to the. The question of the child in the industry at first occupied attention almost to the exclusion of women. But the one led naturally to the other. The woman in the industry could no longer be ignored: she had become an economic force.

Ever since the Industrial Revolution of the late-eighteenth and early-nineteenth centuries, industrialization has been the key to modern economic growth. The fact that modern industry originated in Britain, and spread initially to north-western Europe and North America, implied a dramatic divergence in living standards between the industrial North (or West) and a non-industrial, or even de-industrializing, South (or Rest). This nineteenth-century divergence, which had profound economic, military, and geopolitical implications, has been studied in great detail by many economists and historians. Today, this divergence between the West and the Rest is visibly unraveling, as economies in Asia, Latin America and even sub-Saharan Africa converge on the rich economies of Europe and North America. This phenomenon, which is set to define the twenty-first century, both economically and politically, has also been the subject of a considerable amount of research. Less appreciated, however, are the deep historical roots of this convergence process, and in particular of the spread of modern industry to the global periphery. This volume fills this gap by providing a systematic, comparative, historical account of the spread of modern manufacturing beyond its traditional heartland, to Southern and Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Africa, and Latin America, or what we call the poor periphery. It identifies the timing of this convergence, finding that this was fastest in the interwar and post-World War II years, not the more recent miracle growth years. It also identifies which driving forces were common to all periphery countries, and which were not.
