Industrial Revolution
The Industrial Revolution is most often a story presented as a European development, and rightly so. It was in Europe-first in Britain, then elsewhere-that machine industry began. But if the Industrial Revolution were strictly a European phenomenon, why did it not take place earlier? What changes allowed or encouraged the rise of industry at that time, and not another? In other words, in what respects did the roots of the Industrial Revolution lie within Europe? In what ways did this transformation have global roots?
