Thomas Jefferson gives his attention on reconciling colonies and restoring the principles of the Revolution of 1776. Jefferson believed in an agrarian society with strong local governments, unlike to the Federalist leaders who supported the big government. He also chooses a more informal style of government than spectacle ceremony. Jefferson reduces the size and power of the government, he repealed the Alien and Sedition Acts, ended the whiskey acts and reduced the number to cut costs.

Federalists wanted to have a strong central government that would control the factions. They considered the common people to be ignorant, so the elite was supposed to rule.

On the other hand, Jefferson thought that the common man is capable of making decisions. He also favored state rights, small farmers, democratic values, etc.

He reduced the Federalist's influence by cutting some taxes, including the Whiskey Excise,  as well as closing some offices in order to cut useless establishments and expenses. He also replaced Federalists in the Executive, so as to promote Republican Values.

What political and economic challenges did the leading democracies face in the 1920s and 1930s?
zubka84 [21]
Leading European democracies in addition to the US were challenged by crippled economies and devastated landscapes from World War I. Governments were wanting a return to more isolation and policies which favored their own countries. In the case of Germany, they were struggling to reestablish nationalism and were unable to defend themselves as a country. As a result many people in those countries turned to alternate forms of economy and government to create solid nations once again. All countries saw a rise in socialist thinking and some countries began to move toward socialist ideology. In others especially, Italy and Germany a move toward fascism took place which put nationalism at the forefront and a build up of capitalism to secure their economic place in the world.
