ReplyDeleteI think that new forms of business organization,combining factors of production, substituting capital for labor,and the development of the industrial sector contributed most to the growth of manufacturing. New England and the Middle Atlantic states experienced the greatest economic gains from the technology because they were the main leaders in developing the industrial sector.
