1 feb 1730 año - Growth Of The Cottage Industry

Descripción:

The cottage industry, or also referred to as the putting-out system, expanded as merchants paid families to spin and weave textiles at home. This allowed rural families to earn extra income and connected countryside labor to global markets. It was a major economic change that made a difference between agricultural and industrial work. However, it continued older traditions of family based labor, showing both continuity and reform.
