Question
What do you know about Luddism?
Solution
The movement known as Luddism, led by the charismatic General Ned Ludd, exemplified another type of protest. Luddism was not merely a backward looking assault on machines. Its participants demanded a minimum wage, control over the labour of women and children, work for those who had lost their jobs because of the coming of machinery, and the right to form trade unions so that they could legally present these demands.
