Progressivism is the result of the modernization in the society. Progressive movement aimed at eradicating dishonesty and they believed in a positive Government which is purely democratic and worked for the welfare of the people. Local grandees started to exert their influence in creating a Government. This was abolished by the progressives.

In the period of progressivism many antitrust laws came into existence which aimed at fair trade and removed monopolies.  

Progressive thinkers sought that the education is a natural right and every human must be made a literate. To improve the quality of education, schools were modernized and use of technology was at its peak.

Why did Americans try to create a republic in which the states have more power than the central government
77julia77 [94]
The founding fathers wanted a democracy like the Greeks. The founding fathers were also inspired by the Romans ( that’s why we have a president, senate, etc.). To get to the point it’s because they didn’t want the government to be powerful over the people. This is why we have a 2nd amendment. People don’t know this but the 2nd amendment is so we can make a militia if the government became tyrannical. People also don’t like free speech which is an important amendment that has gotten us far. Taking these amendments away is actually now giving power to the government.
