Analyze the extent to which European exploration of the new world was driven by economic factors.
Iteru [2.4K]

The characterization of mercantilism as a "set of practices" demonstrates the absence of a preconceived plan for the economic policy of European countries that, between the 16th and 18th centuries, disputed slices of American territory to keep them in the condition of colonies. During this period, in Europe, the wealth available in the world was thought of as something that could not be expanded, and therefore the absolutist states strove to secure for themselves as much of this supposedly limited wealth as possible.

Why did charles beard believe that the constitution was written with economic interests in mind?
Talja [164]

Beard believed that the reasons were financial interest and called the constitution a counterrevolution of the holders of bonds against ordinary people, farmers, and debtors. I argue that the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were not the true motivation of the editors and were trying to protect their wealth. The authors were rich and powerful men who did things like allow slavery to continue and the contradiction of their speeches.</span>
