Abstract
The study’s topic is the computation of indices of production for the Great Britain industry. Indices for the whole industrial development where computed as well as indices for single industrial sectors.
In macroeconomic view important results of economical research in the 90ies have revised the traditional interpretation of the so called “industrial revolution”.
Starting point of the discussion were the data of Walther G. Hoffmanns research of the English economy, showing a distinct increase of Great Britains industrial growth rate since 1780. Causes, process and Characteristics of the industrial revolution in Great Britain were the object of the discussion, leading to a relativization of the processes. The result of this discussion was, that the century from 1750 to 1850 is considered as an era of a widely continuous development of already invested economic trends.
