How was progressivism a reaction to industrialization?
Industrialization resulted in a revolution in the way products were made and the kinds of jobs in which people worked. Unfortunately, it also resulted in a lot of illness, poverty, and unfortunate social problems. Progressives sought to address the social issues caused by industrialization.
Why did progressivism decline?
Our involvement in World War 1 put too much stress on the country. We entered in 1917 and the Progressive era was pretty much completely over by 1918.
