Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the world of women's work in the early 20th century, focusing on the city of Birmingham, England. The author takes the reader on a journey through the history of factory legislation, exploring how laws designed to protect children from exploitation eventually extended to women, sparking debate and controversy. The book examines the economic impact of this legislation, exploring whether it benefited or hindered women's employment opportunities and their wages. The author goes beyond the purely economic aspect, discussing the social dynamics that shaped the division of labor between men and women, and how those dynamics influenced the types of jobs women were likely to hold. The book also examines the social and physical conditions of women's work, highlighting the dangers and challenges faced by women working in a variety of industries. By combining historical analysis, social observation, and economic data, the author provides a powerful and insightful look at the lives and working conditions of women in a major industrial center at the turn of the century.
