Document 3 - In 1828, the US Congress passed a law known commonly as the “Tariff of Abominations”, named as such by VP John C Ca

lhoun who felt it was an illegal use of congressional powers. He named this tax an abominable one because the tax was primarily on imported manufactured goods, and felt it was an affront to the Southern economy that was agricultural in nature; reliant on the North & foreign countries for manufactured goods. In 1832, after the passage of another tariff, South Carolina declared the tariffs null and void, refused to pay them, and threatened to leave the Union. President Andrew Jackson responded swiftly with the “Force Bill” that asked Congress to authorize the power to use military force to ensure that states adhered to Federal law. Below is a map of the US Congress House of Representatives vote on the Force Bill of 1833.

Northern states or the Union supported the use of Federal military force to enforce laws. Though all the states have independent functionality, some laws which are of national  significance, with the consent of the state will be enforced by the federal government.

Explanation

Tariff of abominations is a series of taxes inflicted on the imported goods based on the region of the country. South believed that these taxes targeted their states as southern states mostly relied on imports in order to stabilize their economy. It is abominable and mostly disgusted by the southerners.

But when there is unlawful obstructions raised by specific groups against the constitution and not allowing supreme court to give it final rulings, then the president can enforce militia in order to enforce federal laws. This happened with the state South Carolina which refused to pay the import duties and it warned that it would secede from the Union. This was addressed with wrath and annoyance by Jackson who advocated military support to enforce the federal laws.

What did Parliament do to prevent further colonial rebellion?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The situation of the 60s - early 70s of the 18th century gives the impression that Britain deliberately provoked a colonial rebellion. The starting point of post-war tension growth was decree of 1763 on the Allegany-Cumberland line. It was followed in 1765 by a series of laws aimed at further economic strangulation of the colonies, in particular the Stamp Act, which introduced the five times taxation of all printed matter produced in the colonies and any legal documents drawn up on their territory.  

The legislative initiatives of the mother country have become increasingly ominous. Thus, failure to comply with the Stamp Act threatened with the death penalty. De facto colonies were plunged into the atmosphere of medieval legal brutality.

In response, the Sons of Liverty extremist groups attacked British military and royal officials in the colonies. In parallel, a massive boycott of British goods began.

Such a decisive response caused confusion in London. In parliament, the voice of a few supporters of softening attitudes toward the colonies was finally heard. The internal struggle that took place in British political circles at that time was reflected by subsequent “zigzags” in their lawmaking. So, in 1766 the Stamp Act was canceled and the Sugar Act was softened, which retained the prohibition only on the import of rum into colonies. But in 1777, the Townshend Acts entered into force, introducing increased duties on imported tea, glass, paper, paints, and lead.  

The Boston Massacre provoked a violent reaction. Riots spread to small towns and rural areas. The escalation of the conflict has a ‘sobering’ effect on the British Parliament. A gesture of reconciliation on its part was the abolition of the Townshend Acts, with one strange exception - the preservation of high duties on the import of tea. But such small concessions could no longer defuse the situation.
