The decline of the household as the locus of production led directly to a growing impersonality in the economic realm; household heads, instead of directing family enterprises or small shops, often had to find ways to recruit and discipline a wage-labor force; in all cases, they had to stay abreast of or even surpass their competitors.”             -Sean Wilentz, historian, “Society, Politics, and the Market Revolution, 1815-1848,” published in 1997.   Which of the following historical developments contributed most directly to the market revolution?
