1. BEFORE AND AFTER FORD
Henry Ford, Assembly Line and Mass Production: It’s
Social and Psychological effects
By Ghafar Sarwari & William
Zhao

2. WHO IS FORD?
 Henry Ford is the founder of the car company Ford
 He was also the first person to invent an improved
assembly line and the first to install this conveyor
belt-based assembly line
 Henry Ford is also known as the father of modern
automobiles and of production technology because
of his advancement of the assembly line and mass
production

3. ASSEMBLY LINE & MASS PRODUCTION
 Henry Ford invented an improved assembly line
and installed the first conveyor belt-based assembly
line in his car factory in around 1913-14
 The assembly line was very efficient and this
helped reduce costs of production by reducing the
time it took to create a car (Ford's famous Model T
was assembled in ninety-three minutes)
 A worker would repeat the same job, and that would
be the only thing he does allowing every product to
be done both fast and the same as the other
one(Mass Production).

4. SIGNIFICANCE OF HENRY FORD IN THE BOOK
 Henry Ford is treated as if he was god. People pray
and worship him.
 Without Henry Ford’s creation of the assembly line
the world in the book would not exist because the
world is built around the assembly line and the
footprint that Ford has left.
 Henry Ford changed the world, things stopped
being built individually, stopped being built by
people alone and started to integrate the work of
machines.

5. HENRY FORD IN THE BOOK VS. OUR WORLD
 In the book people use the phrase ‘Oh My Ford’
and ‘Thank Ford’ instead of ‘Oh my God’ or ‘Thank
God’
 In our world to talk about time we use Before
Common Era (BCE) and Common Era (CE), but in
the book they use Before Ford and After Ford.
 Also, in the book all history before Ford is wrong
and the people back then were wrong. Only the
teachings of Ford are allowed and right.

6. ASSEMBLY LINE IN THE BOOK VS. OUR
WORLD
 The assembly lines in the book are used to mass
produce babies and to age them for work but in the
real world Henry Ford used them to create cars.
 The assembly line is like a way of life in the book,
they use assembly lines to make babies that will be
working on an assembly line to create everything
else.
 The babies are chosen to a job before they are
born. They make babies purposely more intellectual
or less during the process of birth using the
assembly line by going through stages.

7. SEX IN THE BOOK VS. OUR WORLD
 Sex is not used for birth, it is socially frowned upon
to give birth to your own child. Sex is strictly for
pleasure
 People in the book have sex in public, now in the
book this is acceptable but in our world it is illegal to
show your sexual organ in public and people will
find this very unusual.
 In the book, kids have sex at a young age when
their still adolescent. In the real world most parents
wouldn’t even think of their kids having sex until
they are in their teens and even then, parents don’t
look at it as being acceptable in our world.

8. SOCIAL CLASSES
 Alpha: Highest Class, #1
 Beta: Second Highest Class, #2
 Gamma: Middle Class, #3
 Delta: Second Lowest Class, #4
 Epsilon: Lowest Class, #5
 Each class is bred to do a certain type of job. Not
all are bred the same and each have different traits.
 The upper class are bred to do more intellectual
jobs whereas the lower are to do labor jobs that
require less intelligence.
