Answer:

Because there was a lot of opposition to women's participation in political affairs.

Explanation:

Although in 1920 women gained the right to vote through the 19th Amendment, there was much opposition to women's participation in political affairs. Even though they won the right to vote, some women refused to vote in 1920, because some believed it was wrong and others feared retaliation from more traditional societies, including women who were forbidden by their husbands to vote.

Even if women's voting was approved by law, many people kept the idea that women could only get involved in domestic affairs and for that reason women were discouraged from participating in political affairs. The result was that women had little influence on national politics in the 1920s.

Many of them were too busy tending to work at home cooking cleaning etc. Even if they were not they were not allowed to vote legally. This changed eventually though. Women started movements and eventually gained the right to vote.

In the 1780s and 1790s, Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton expressed different visions for the economic future of the Unite
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The conflict that took shape in the 1790s between the Federalists and the Antifederalists exercised a profound impact on American history. The Federalists, led by Alexander Hamilton, who had married into the wealthy Schuyler family, represented the urban mercantile interests of the seaports; the Antifederalists, led by Thomas Jefferson, spoke for the rural and southern interests. The debate between the two concerned the power of the central government versus that of the states, with the Federalists favoring the former and the Antifederalists advocating states' rights.

Hamilton sought a strong central government acting in the interests of commerce and industry. He brought to public life a love of efficiency, order and organization. In response to the call of the House of Representatives for a plan for the "adequate support of public credit," he laid down and supported principles not only of the public economy, but of effective government.

Hamilton pointed out that America must have credit for industrial development, commercial activity and the operations of government. It must also have the complete faith and support of the people. There were many who wished to repudiate the national debt or pay only part of it. Hamilton, however insisted upon full payment and also upon a plan by which the federal government took over the unpaid debts of the states incurred during the Revolution.

Hamilton also devised a Bank of the United States, with the right to establish branches in different parts of the country. He sponsored a national mint, and argued in favor of tariffs, using a version of an "infant industry" argument: that temporary protection of new firms can help foster the development of competitive national industries. These measures -- placing the credit of the federal government on a firm foundation and giving it all the revenues it needed -- encouraged commerce and industry, and created a solid phalanx of businessmen who stood firmly behind the national government.

1. Born into obscurity in the British West Indies, Alexander Hamilton made his reputation during the Revolutionary War and became one of America's most influential Founding Fathers. He was an impassioned champion of a strong federal government, and played a key role in defending and ratifying the U.S. Constitution.
