Division of labour

1. Introduction

Human being are interdependent because we cannot live without

the help of other members in the commu- nity. Ve all special- ize in some sort of. job in the society in order to produce some useful commodities or services, In other words, we cannot produce all the goods and services we need for our survival. Ve. can only participate in part of the produc- tion activities and exchange with others.

Therefore, specializ- ation is essential,

For the same token, in modern economy, the production operation. are so complex that there is an increasing use of capital in

production and the adoption of mass production system. Usually the production activities are divided

into different processes and sub- processes in which every process is assigned to particular group of worders or. individuals, Therefore, only a small part of the work is undertaken by one person, or a group, each of whom specializes in a single process.

By the same way, because of the

existence of inter- national trade system, different commodities. "are produced by

different countries, depending upon climate, oil, availability of raw materials and labour. It is also said to be a kind of specialization into different countries.

Definition of division of labour

In a narrower senge, division of labour means that the manufacturing process is broden down into a series of separate activi ties, each of which is performed by a separate operation carried out by particular person or particular group of wordors..

B. In a broader sense, division of labour means the separation of production into different stages and occupations, which are carried out by different firms in

manufacturing.

industries such as the spinning sector, weaving sector,

knitting sector,

finishing sector and

the broadest

A making sector

sense, division of labour 'may refer to înternational division of labour which is the origin

of international

trade. It means that each country specializes in manufacturing some products and exchanges it with the other countries through internation- al markets. Consequently, each country would obtain comparative advan- tages from the exchange behavior. Aims of division of labour

The main aim of division of labour system is to increase. output. In other words, it can increase

the productivity by making full use of productive resources including labour,. land, machinery and equipment so as to

increase the quantity of the products and to improve the quality of products. As a result, through the

the division

of labour, production becomes more efficient and effective.

Types of division of Tabour

A. Simple division of

Labour

It refers to the. specialization of one trade and industry by a particular specia- list or firm or manufacturing unit, For instance, in the economy there isTM natural division of production perform- ed by various firns and people such as engineers, bakers, shoemakers and carpanters, etc.

B. Complex division of

labour.

... It refers to the specialization of

more, detailed process or sub- procesa by parti- cular firm or production unit. It is the further division" of work". into particular. aspect of a special trade. Usually, the production processes are more complex. The breaking down of production process of car manufacturing is an example. C. International

division of labour . It refers to the specialization of particular trade or industry by the

special country. Since modern technology has developed speciali zation so that the

geographical

specialization

becomes possible. For example, each country would specialize in one product which is world famous. Scotch whisky, and Swiss watches are demanded everywhere, Advantages of division of labour

B.

A. increased out output,

great skills of the workers because of practicing,

a saving of time by keeping to single process,

make full use of

machinery and

equipment,

S provide more employ

ment opportunities

to the specialists,

F. standardize the

quality of the products,

the workers would

become less fatigue

by the same

division of labour system,

H. reduced cost

production,

For international

specialization of

labour, each country cou fully utilize its productive resources and there are greater compara- tive advatages over. them

Disadvantages of... division of labour

A. monotony of the work,

greater risk of unemployment because of highly specializ- ed emplotment, loss of job satis– faction leads to decline of craftsmanship,

if there is delay in completing one part of work, the entire production schedule would be hindered, the workers may suffer perform occupational disease Limitations to division of labour

Although the division system is generally of cabon used in modern

manufacturing industries, there are sume limitation..?! A. The extent of the

market

Since division of labour allows maas production, the output of production is increased in large quantities. There is a problem

that some goods are not in mass demand such as bacon cutters cutters, ham slicers, etc. In other words, the markets demand of these goods may not need the production system. Sometimes the manufacturing can be performed by sole producer to the heat of his ability. D. Technical

impossibi ility

mass

Sometimes it is

difficult to sub

divide a production process into a

number of sub- processes. When each process has been reduced to a minimum activity, it is impossible to make further division of labour possible. Greater risk in production

Because of the breaking down of production activity: the production of Farge output becomes more risky. Entre- preneurs will suffer from any economic. declines such as

inadequate monetary system, inflation problem and

unemployment problem.

HISTORY (4)

Philip Y.L. Woo

Mill & Dale Press Ltd. -CHINA 1862-1900

The Ch'ing Dynasty ruled China at this time. Its power was on the decline during the 19th century. For example, there were many. rebellions trying to overthrow it, Then in the mid-19th century the Westerners came and· · threatened it militarily (the 1st and 2nd Opium Wars). This quickened the decline of the Ching Dynasty but it alone did not cause it. Both internal and external factors helped explain the decline of the Ch'ing Dynasty.MAS

1. Self-Strengthenang.

Movement - This Mas from 1862 to 1894, Only military- technological reforms were attempted. They failed to strengthen China. One reason was that the mere copying of military- technological changes alone could not strengthen the

country, Much depended on the ability to use. military technological

things, which there- fore. depended on education and the villingness among the people to be educated in the Western way. Changes should therefore be thorough, or else limited changes could never reform a country (and behind it the deep- rooted civilization at large) successfully. 2. Sino-Japanese War

This was from 1894 to 18957 After successful. modernization, Jupani tried to obtain. imperialist possessions like colonies. She. wanted Korea, Chi, Thai

tried to stop her. War resulted. China was. badly defeated. This showed the failure of China's. Self-" Strengthening Movement.

3. The Scramble

for

Concessions - This was from about 1895 to 1900. Before the Sino- Japanese War of 1894. 95, Western powers believed that the Ch'ing Dynasty, although weak, could maintain lay and order, so that trade would prosper. Trade was what Western powers (mainly Britain) wanted from China, However, China's defeat in the Sino-Japanese War made Western povers believe

that they must get from China territorial concessions before other powers did so first. Western powers bad lost confidence in the effectiveness, of the rule of the Ch'ing Dynasty. When one power obtained from the Ch'ing Dynasty a certain territorial concession; other

powers became fearful. and derianded the sacie. This led to the Scramble for: Concessions. China was nearly partitioned, Before 1895, Western demand was commercial, If one power obtained a certain, commercial concession, other ̈ powers would enjoy it automatically due to

the most-favoured- nation clause. After 1895, Western demand was territorial. Eachi power wanted to get exclusive Y

territorial concessions from China, that is, concessi ous that the power enjoyed alone,

The Hundred Day Reform - This happened in 1898, from June to September. It was about 100 days, so the nawe. From 1895 to 1898, many young Chinese scholars became very worried about China's future. There were two main reasons: (a) defeat in the Sino-Japanese War (China had always regarded Japan us being inférior but this time China was defeated and: humiliated by Japan) (b) the Scramble for Concessions (Young scholars fel that something must be done Lo save China, before it was too late). Within the Ching

court, the young Emperor Kuang-hsu(2) struggled for pover with his aunt the Empress Dowager, Kuang-hsu invited young scholars like Kang Yu-weiVKA/B) and Liang Ch'i-ch'ao (404) to the Ching court and attempted reform. The motives were (a) to save China(b) to obtain power from the Empress Dowager. They were reformer's, as, /

they tried to reform China. The reform

movement

was called the

the Hundred Day Reform.

During the Self- Strengthening movement (1862-94), reform measures were carried

out in the provinces. The young reformers of 1898 felt that this

was

s one. reason for the

lure. So they...

out reform measures in Peking, the capital, hoping that this would ensure nation-wide reform changes. However, in the end, the Empress Dounger came forth, imprisoned the Emperor Kuang-hsu, killed many of the reformers, and. turned China back to: the old situation.

The Boxer Uprising This happened in 1900–

1901. As we said in the beginning, the Ching Dynasty was on the decline. It could not control the countryside. effectively. Many

secret societies (which ained at rebelling against the Dynasty) became active. Peasants and common people suffered They hated foreigners. because (a) of the tradition of anti- foreignism (b) foreigners threatened. their livelihood, in 'many ways. In other

words, common people hated hotir the Ching Dynasty (who in their eyes failed to protect them and give them a good living) and foreigners (who were called foreign devils Many common people killed foreigners in North China, - especially in Shantung. The Ch'ing Dynasty did not suppress these people because (a) it was equally anti-foreign (b) it tried to put all the blame on foreigners for social and political problems. Because of (b), the Ch*ing Dynasty actively supported the common people în resisting foreigners. These common people verc called Boxers because many of thêm practised boxing, and the disturbance was called the Boxer Uprising - In other words, the Boxer Uprising was at, first against the Ch'ing Dynasty and in the end against foreigners (as the Ching Dynasty supported the Boxers to do so). The foreign powers gathered an army, invaded Peking, drove away the Boxérs and threatened the Ch'ing court. Although China was not partitioned among foreign powers (the possibility of partitioning was very real), she was greatly bumilitated,
