Reform Movements Of The 1800sPhilsfan

The document discusses several reform movements that occurred in the United States during the 1800s, including the women's rights movement, temperance movement, and abolitionist movement. The women's rights movement fought for more equal treatment of women, led by activists like Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton. They organized a convention in 1848 to discuss issues of inequality between men and women. It took until 1920 for women to be granted the right to vote with the passage of the 19th Amendment, despite the efforts of early leaders like Anthony and Stanton. The temperance and abolitionist movements also pushed for social reforms around banning alcohol and ending slavery during this time period.1820-1860: Society, Culture, and Reforms

The Second Great Awakening led to the development of new religious movements in the 1820-1860 period. Charles Finney sparked revivals in New York appealing to emotions, preaching salvation through faith and works. Joseph Smith founded Mormonism in 1830 and led followers west, with Brigham Young taking over after Smith's death and establishing colonies in Utah. Reform movements also advocated for public institutions like schools and asylums, with Dorothea Dix convincing legislatures to build mental hospitals and Horace Mann advocating for tax-supported public schools. The temperance, abolitionist, and women's rights movements also gained traction during this time of religious and social change.Chapter 9 Religion and Reform

The temperance movement in the early 1800s aimed to eliminate alcohol consumption by having people take pledges of abstinence. Some states passed laws banning alcohol but most were not strongly enforced. There was also a rise in support for public schools to create literate, informed citizens, though not all agreed that taxes should fund schools. Meanwhile, the abolitionist movement sought to end slavery, initially calling for gradual emancipation but later demanding immediate abolition. Prominent abolitionists included Frederick Douglass, Sojourner Truth, and those who helped slaves escape via the Underground Railroad. However, abolitionism faced resistance both from northerners who feared economic impacts and southerners who were outraged by the criticism of slavery.Antebellum american society pt. 2

The Second Great Awakening was a religious revival movement in the early 1800s that spread across America. It revived old churches like the Methodists and Baptists and attracted many converts. Circuit-riding preachers traveled across the frontier to spread the gospel. Charles Finney was a leading preacher of this movement who advocated for social reforms like abolishing slavery and allowing women to pray aloud in church. Joseph Smith claimed to receive golden plates from an angel and founded Mormonism in 1830, publishing the Book of Mormon. However, Mormonism faced opposition and controversy over beliefs like polygamy and modern prophets. The Seneca Falls Convention in 1848 was an important event that began the movement for women's rights in America. TranscThe romanticism period (1800 1860)work

The Romanticism Period occurred between 1800-1860 originating in Europe as a reaction to industrialization and rationalism. It emphasized emotion, nature, individualism and the supernatural in art, literature and intellectual thought. Key characteristics included engaged artists, glorification of nature, and the romantic hero who rejected society to live closely with nature. Famous Romantic writers and their works included Washington Irving, James Fenimore Cooper, Edgar Allan Poe and Nathaniel Hawthorne. The period highlighted the soul and potential of individuals who could achieve self-realization through their artistic expression.Changes During Andrew JacksonS Presidency

2. Jackson believed it was America's destiny to move westward.
3. A new political party, the Democratic Party, was formed under Jackson after the previous parties disbanded.

This document outlines the key differences between capitalism, socialism, and communism. Capitalism is based on private ownership and laissez-faire markets, while communism believes in collective ownership and a planned economy with no private property. Socialism is presented as a transition stage between capitalism and communism, where workers take control of the country and its resources. The document then describes Marx's five stages of societal evolution from primitive communism to advanced communism, where boundaries cease and all work to benefit each other.Capitalism vs socialism

Capitalism is an economic system defined by private ownership of property and business for profit. It features free markets, competition, and limited government intervention. Benefits include efficient resource use and economic growth, while drawbacks include inequality and instability. Socialism is a system where the state owns and controls production and economic planning. It aims for equality and welfare, but can lack incentives, individual freedom, and efficiency compared to capitalism. Both systems have merits and demerits when considering economic outcomes and social impacts.Economy type and characteristics

The French and Indian War was fought from 1754 to 1763 between Great Britain and France over control of territory in North America. Great Britain allied with American colonists and the Iroquois nation, while France allied with Native American groups like the Huron and Algonquin. France controlled forts and settlements in Canada and along the Ohio Valley, blocking British expansion, while Britain had more settlers along the coast. The tide turned when William Pitt became British prime minister in 1757 and increased funding and troop levels, capturing Montreal in 1760. The Treaty of Paris in 1763 ended the war, ceding French North American lands to Britain.Explorer trading cards approved websites
