The Luddites were 19th century artisan textile makers who protested the new machinery brought on by the Industrial Revolution. They felt that it threatened their livelihoods. They protested and destroyed expensive machinery for years. In 1813, the British government effectively put a stop to the Luddite movement by putting more than sixty men on trial for Luddite activities. The men on trial were harshly punished, which kept others from continuing protests on the outside. However, isolated Luddite incidents did continue to happen for several more years.
The Luddite movement was a social movement in England during the early 19th century, primarily in the years 1811-1816. The movement was made up of textile workers who protested against the introduction of mechanized looms and other new technologies that threatened their traditional way of life. The Luddites were known for their acts of sabotage, including destroying machinery in factories.
