  • Education Teacher’S Kit
    Industrial Heritage - The Textile Industry Education Teacher’s Kit Background There is archaeological evidence of textile production in Britain from the late-prehistoric period onwards. For many thousands of years wool was the staple textile product of Britain. The dominance of wool in the British textile industry changed rapidly during the eighteenth century with the development of mechanised silk production and then mechanised cotton production. By the mid-nineteenth century all four major branches of the textile industry (cotton, wool, flax, hemp and jute and silk) had been mechanised and the British landscape was dominated by over 10,000 mill buildings with their distinctive chimneys. Overseas competition led to a decline in the textile industry in the mid-twentieth century. Today woollen production is once again the dominant part of the sector together with artificial and man-made fibres, although output is much reduced from historic levels. Innovation Thomas Lombe’s silk mill, built in 1721, is regarded as the first factory-based textile mill in Britain. However, it was not until the handloom was developed following the introduction of John Kay’s flying shuttle in 1733 that other branches of the textile industry (notably cotton and wool) became increasingly mechanised. In the second half of the eighteenth century, a succession of major innovations including James Hargreaves’s spinning jenny (1764), Richard Arkwright’s water frame (1769), his carding engine (1775), and Samuel Crompton’s mule (1779), revolutionised the preparation and spinning of cotton and wool and led to the establishment of textile factories where several machines were housed under one roof.

  • A History of the University of Manchester Since 1951
    Pullan2004jkt 10/2/03 2:43 PM Page 1 University ofManchester A history ofthe HIS IS THE SECOND VOLUME of a history of the University of Manchester since 1951. It spans seventeen critical years in T which public funding was contracting, student grants were diminishing, instructions from the government and the University Grants Commission were multiplying, and universities feared for their reputation in the public eye. It provides a frank account of the University’s struggle against these difficulties and its efforts to prove the value of university education to society and the economy. This volume describes and analyses not only academic developments and changes in the structure and finances of the University, but the opinions and social and political lives of the staff and their students as well. It also examines the controversies of the 1970s and 1980s over such issues as feminism, free speech, ethical investment, academic freedom and the quest for efficient management. The author draws on official records, staff and student newspapers, and personal interviews with people who experienced the University in very 1973–90 different ways. With its wide range of academic interests and large student population, the University of Manchester was the biggest unitary university in the country, and its history illustrates the problems faced by almost all British universities. The book will appeal to past and present staff of the University and its alumni, and to anyone interested in the debates surrounding higher with MicheleAbendstern Brian Pullan education in the late twentieth century. A history of the University of Manchester 1951–73 by Brian Pullan with Michele Abendstern is also available from Manchester University Press.

Kiichiro Toyoda and the Birth of the Japanese Automobile Industry: Reconsideration of Toyoda-Platt Agreement.* Kazuo WADA Faculty of Economics University of Tokyo Abstract In discussion of the birth of the Japanese automobile industry, most researchers and journalists obviously talk about the Toyota Motor Corporation and the Toyoda-Platt Agreement. It has been widely asserted that the one million yen that was received as a result of the Agreement provided Kiichiro Toyoda with the means to begin doing research on the automobile. But the historical evidence does not support this legendary story, and in many ways contradicts it. This paper aims to set the historical record straight. 1/33 1. Is the legendary story correct? Toyota Motor Corporation is now one of the most famous companies in Japan( see Fig.1 on the relationship of the companies appearing in this paper). One can find whole shelves of bookstores in Japan with books and magazines on Toyota.

Introduction A visitor to any large technical library in the heart of the textile industries, on discovering the collection of textile books in stock, would be astonished to realise how small a space they occupy. The Textile Institute, for example, has most of the live books in English, but can accommodate them all in one small room. The Shirley Institute has for 24 years pursued the policy of acquiring every book on the cotton, rayon and silk industries that could be secured, whether old or new, and in whatever language, and yet the shelf space now occupied by books—apart from bound volumes of periodicals— is only some 160 feet.

  • Toyota and Britain
    PART III: BUSINESS FIGURES 9 Toyota and Britain MEMOIR BY TOYODA SHO¯ ICHIRO¯ Toyoda Sho¯ichiro¯ The United Kingdom has been one of the countries most closely associ- ated with Toyota in the past century.I am convinced that this relationship is unlikely to change in the future, and that we must not allow it to change. The roots of Toyota Motor Corporation of today go back to Toyoda Sakichi, my grandfather. Wanting to turn Japan into a rich country akin to Western nations, Sakichi worked and studied hard and devoted his life to inventing and improving weaving machines; afterwards, he was even called ‘Inventor-king of the world’. One of the books that Sakichi read and re-read many times was Self Help by Samuel Smiles, a famous British polemicist. This book, translated into Japanese by Nakamura Masanao1 in the Meiji era, was read widely by young people in Japan. I also read Self Help when I was a youngster and was inspired to my own ‘self-help’efforts. Sakichi invented a wooden Toyoda hand-loom in 1890 and obtained his first patent on it; later, in 1896, he developed a power loom, the first such machine in Japan. On his study tour to Europe in 1910, he visited Manchester, the industrial centre of the world at that time, and spent a full month there studying a wide variety of machin- ery. He must have called upon Platt Brothers & Co. Ltd., known as the top textile-machine manufacturer in the world, which was located in Oldham just outside Manchester.
