Morphology
industrialism = industrial (transparent) = industry + al + ism
The adjective 'industrial' (industry + -al) is a straightforward base and the suffix '-ism' yields 'a system/ideology related to industry', so the meaning is directly derivable.
Etymology
The word industrialism comes from industry, which in turn comes from the old Latin word industria meaning 'hard work' or 'careful work', and the ending -ism marks a system or idea. So industrialism is a system based on 'industry', meaning big factories and mass production, which is why it refers to an economy and society built around large industries.
