The above statement is false.
Traditional industries were not quickly replaced by new ones. At the end of the nineteenth century, less than 20% of the overall workforce was employed in technologically advanced industrial sectors. Although the textile industry was constantly evolving, a significant amount of its output was created outside of factories. Technological advancements were gradual.
