Abstract

This article offers a new perspective on why workers protested in the Industrial Revolution. It charts how protest action, specifically trade union coordinated strikes, took place to maintain or improve Yorkshire colliers’ living standards amid fluctuating food costs between 1786 and 1801. The article also illuminates how some paternalistic coalowners avoided disturbances — such as riots — by paying high wages and, more importantly, providing food to their employees free of charge at the worst times of dearth in 1795 and 1800.

1786-1801年约克郡煤田的抗议、父权制和生活水平

这篇文章为工人为什么在工业革命中抗议提供了一个新的视角。它描绘了1786年至1801年间，在食品成本波动的情况下，如何采取抗议行动，特别是工会协调的罢工，以维持或提高约克郡煤矿工人的生活水平。这篇文章还阐明了一些家长式的煤矿主是如何通过支付高工资来避免骚乱的，更重要的是，在1795年和1800年最短缺的时候，他们免费为员工提供食物。
