The 19th century, marked by the dawn of industrialization, witnessed significant societal shifts, especially with the rise of distinct social classes like the working class and the bourgeoisie. This term paper delves into the interplay between bourgeois values, specifically focusing on education and morality, and their influence on the social differentiation between the lower and middle social strata of the time. Through a deep dive into the 1842 Royal Commission report, the paper aims to unravel the societal dynamics, perspectives, and underlying motivations that framed the class distinctions of this transformative era.
