Progressivism emerged in the late 19th century as a response to rapid industrialization and urbanization in the United States. Reformers came from all classes and regions and sought to address issues like political corruption, unsanitary living conditions in cities, and lack of protections for workers and consumers. Settlement houses like Jane Addams' Hull House aimed to improve life for immigrants through social services, education, and investigations into public health issues. Progressive reforms sought to give government a greater role in regulating industry and ensuring social welfare and justice.

World History - Changing ways of life
1) Between 1800-1900, the population of Europe doubled due to declining death rates from improved nutrition, medicine and public health advances like vaccinations and pasteurization of milk.
2) Major figures like Louis Pasteur, Robert Koch and Florence Nightingale helped fight diseases through identifying their causes, vaccinations and introducing sanitary measures in hospitals.
3) Growing cities featured urban renewal, infrastructure like sewers and sidewalks, and new building types such as government buildings, department stores and skyscrapers, though many still lived in poor conditions.
Americas and Women
The document discusses the changing roles of women in Latin America over the past several decades. It describes how in the mid-20th century, women fought for and gained the right to vote in some countries. Women then took on new public roles by leading struggles for human rights under oppressive military regimes. More recently, women have entered the workforce in greater numbers and gained more access to education, though domestic work remains a common occupation and double shifts are still expected of many working women. Prejudice against women in politics still persists throughout Latin America.
A Timeline of Major Reform Events to 1964
This document provides a timeline of key reform events from 1807 to 1964 in the United States. Some of the earliest reforms addressed the abolition of slavery and women's suffrage. The timeline then covers education reforms, prison reforms led by Dorothea Dix, labor reforms including the formation of unions, and child labor reforms. It concludes with women's suffrage being achieved through the 19th Amendment in 1920 and the Civil Rights Act prohibiting gender discrimination in 1964. The timeline shows the long progression of social and political reforms over the course of the 19th and early 20th centuries.
Economic Reform in the Progressive Era
Progressives became concerned about long work hours and poor wages damaging the health of factory workers, especially women and children. Reformers like Florence Kelley lobbied for protective legislation. Jacob Riis documented poor living conditions in tenement housing. Muckraking journalists like Ida Tarbell exposed corruption and fraud in big business, such as Standard Oil. Theodore Roosevelt, as president, took steps to regulate industry and break up trusts in the interest of public welfare, while also establishing national parks and promoting conservation. Upton Sinclair's The Jungle drew attention to unsanitary conditions in the meatpacking industry and spurred passage of new food safety laws.
