The Luddites, a group of English workers who protested against industrialization and the use of machinery that threatened their jobs, began to decline in the early 1810s. Their movement was effectively quashed by a combination of government repression, including the deployment of military forces and harsh punishments for machine-breaking. By the mid-1810s, as industrialization continued to expand and economic conditions stabilized, the Luddite movement lost momentum and ultimately faded away. Additionally, the rise of new labor movements and trade unions shifted focus from direct action against machinery to broader labor rights and reforms.
