Question

Why did Jeffersonian fear industrialization and Jacksonian supported it?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation

Jeffersonian Democracy

Believed property requirement was a test of character that man of initiative should be able to meet

Believed the educated elite should rule, although he proposed education for all to prepare poorer individuals for public office

Candidates were chosen by caucuses of political leaders

Yeoman farmer as the “chosen class”

Originally feared the consequences of industrialization

In J’s time corporate charters were granted to favorites of state legislators & often implied monopoly rights to a business

Both disapproved – originally at least, disagreed with a loose interpretation of the elastic clause

Owned slaves, saw slavery as an evil that time would eradicate

Neither man saw women or American Indians as equals

An educated man himself, believed education was necessary for office-holding and for preparing citizens for participation in a democracy

Education & ambition were keys to success; however, he was never able to build support for his proposed system of public education

Most state constitutions had eliminated established churches after the Revolution;  

Jacksonian Democracy

Property requirements for voting had been eliminated

Believed all men were qualified to hold office and that political positions should be rotated

Nominating conventions were introduced during Jackson’s time

Jackson included planters, farmers, laborers, and mechanics in “chosen class”

Accepted industry as essential to American economy

Roger Taney, Jackson’s appointee as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, ruled in Charles River Bridge decision that corporate charters should be available to all who chose to risk starting a business

Jackson saw Bank as a monopoly of the rich

Owned slaves, but seemed little interested in abolition

Had a particularly negative attitude toward Native Americans

Had little education & believed education was relatively unimportant

Ended the Bank & with it, control over credit, CRB decision opened opportunities for individuals to get corporate charters & thus rise on both economic and social ladders. Jackson, a self-made man, believed his economic progress had accounted for his own upward social mobility & others could follow his example

Massachusetts, the last state to maintain an established church, ended the practice in 1834

Answer 2

Answer: An ambiguous, controversial concept, Jacksonian Democracy in the strictest sense refers simply to the ascendancy of Andrew Jackson and the Democratic party after 1828. More loosely, it alludes to the entire range of democratic reforms that proceeded alongside the Jacksonians’ triumph—from expanding the suffrage to restructuring federal institutions. From another angle, however, Jacksonianism appears as a political impulse tied to slavery, the subjugation of Native Americans, and the celebration of white supremacy—so much so that some scholars have dismissed the phrase “Jacksonian Democracy” as a contradiction in terms.

Such tendentious revisionism may provide a useful corrective to older enthusiastic assessments, but it fails to capture a larger historical tragedy: Jacksonian Democracy was an authentic democratic movement, dedicated to powerful, at times radical, egalitarian ideals—but mainly for white men.

Socially and intellectually, the Jacksonian movement represented not the insurgency of a specific class or region but a diverse, sometimes testy national coalition. Its origins stretch back to the democratic stirrings of the American Revolution, the Antifederalists of the 1780s and 1790s, and the Jeffersonian Democratic Republicans. More directly, it arose out of the profound social and economic changes of the early nineteenth century.

Recent historians have analyzed these changes in terms of a market revolution. In the Northeast and Old Northwest, rapid transportation improvements and immigration hastened the collapse of an older yeoman and artisan economy and its replacement by cash-crop agriculture and capitalist manufacturing. In the South, the cotton boom revived a flagging plantation slave economy, which spread to occupy the best lands of the region. In the West, the seizure of lands from Native Americans and mixed-blood Hispanics opened up fresh areas for white settlement and cultivation—and for speculation.
