Rice offers a new understanding of class formation in America during the several decades before the Civil War. This was the period in the nation's early industrial development when travel by steamboat became commonplace, when the railroad altered concepts of space and time, and when Americans experienced the beginnings of factory production. These disorienting changes raised a host of questions about what machinery would accomplish. Would it promote equality or widen the distance between rich and poor? Among the most contentious questions were those focusing on the social consequences of mechanization: while machine enthusiasts touted the extent to which machines would free workers from toil, others pointed out that people needed to tend machines, and that that work was fundamentally degrading and exploitative. Minding the Machine shows how members of a new middle class laid claim to their social authority and minimized the potential for class conflict by playing out class relations on less contested social and technical terrains. As they did so, they defined relations between shop owners-and the overseers, foremen, or managers they employed-and wage workers as analogous to relations between head and hand, between mind and body, and between human and machine. Rice presents fascinating discussions of the mechanics' institute movement, the manual labor school movement, popular physiology reformers, and efforts to solve the seemingly intractable problem of steam boiler explosions. His eloquent narrative demonstrates that class is as much about the comprehension of social relations as it is about the making of social relations, and that class formation needs to be understood not only as a social struggle but as a conceptual struggle. 606 $aSocial classes$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aIndustrial revolution$zUnited States$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aWork in literature 606 $aSocial classes in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSocial classes$xHistory 615 0$aIndustrial revolution$xHistory 615 0$aWork in literature. 615 0$aSocial classes in literature. 676 $a305.5097309034 700 $aRice$b Stephen P$g(Stephen Patrick),$f1963-$01053269 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450457003321 996 $aMinding the machine$92485096 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01805nam 2200397 n 450 001 996386397103316 005 20221108032217.0 035 $a(CKB)1000000000613914 035 $a(EEBO)2240954237 035 $a(UnM)99870346 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000613914 100 $a19940824d1660 uy | 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurbn||||a|bb| 200 00$aTo His Excellency the Lord General Monck$b[electronic resource] $ethe humble addresse and thanks of the gentry, and other free-holders in the county of Hartford 210 $a[London] $cPrinted by John Brudenell at his dwelling house in Maiden head-alley near Newgate$d1659.
