    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY THE INFLUENCE OF THE 1830s NULLIFICATION CRISIS ON THE 1860s SECESSION CRISIS JAMES MANGIARACINA SPRING 2017 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in History with honors in History Reviewed and approved* by the following: Amy Greenberg Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of History and Women’s Studies Thesis Supervisor Mike Milligan Senior Lecturer in History Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT This thesis aims to connect the constitutional arguments for and against secession during the Nullification Crisis of 1832 with the constitutional arguments for and against secession during the Secession Crisis of 1860-1861. Prior to the Nullification Crisis, Vice President John C. Calhoun, who has historically been considered to be a leading proponent of secession, outlined his doctrine of nullification in 1828. This thesis argues that Calhoun’s doctrine was initially intended to preserve the Union. However, after increasingly high protective tariffs, the state delegates of the South Carolina Nullification Convention radicalized his version of nullification as expressed in the Ordinance of Nullification of 1832. In response to the Ordinance, President Andrew Jackson issued his Proclamation Regarding Nullification. In this document, Jackson vehemently opposed the notion of nullification and secession through various constitutional arguments. Next, this thesis will look at the Bluffton Movement of 1844 and the Nashville Convention of 1850. In the former, Robert Barnwell Rhett pushed for immediate nullification of the new protective Tariff of 1842 or secession. In this way, Rhett further removed Calhoun’s original intention of nullification and radicalized it.

  • South Carolina's Partisan
    SOWING THE SEEDS OF DISUNION: SOUTH CAROLINA’S PARTISAN NEWSPAPERS AND THE NULLIFICATION CRISIS, 1828-1833 by ERIKA JEAN PRIBANIC-SMITH A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Communication and Information Sciences in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2010 Copyright Erika Jean Pribanic-Smith, 2010 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Ultimately the first state to secede on the eve of the Civil War, South Carolina erupted in controversy following the 1828 passage of an act increasing duties on foreign imports for the protection of domestic industry. Most could agree that the tariff was unconstitutional, unequal in that it benefited the industrial North more than the agrarian South, and oppressive to plantation states that had to rely on expensive northern goods or foreign imports made more costly by the duties. Factions formed, however, based on recommended means of redress. Partisan newspapers of that era became vocal supporters of one faction or the other. What became the Free Trade Party by the end of the Nullification Crisis began as a loosely-organized group that called for unqualified resistance to what they perceived as a gross usurpation of power by the federal government. The Union Party grew out of a segment of the population that was loyal to the government and alarmed by their opposition’s disunion rhetoric. Strong at the start due to tariff panic and bolstered by John C. Calhoun’s “South Carolina Exposition and Protest,” the Free Trade Party lost ground when the Unionists successfully turned their overzealous disunion language against them in the 1830 city and state elections.

EKELUND, JR. TARIFFS, BLOCKADES, AND INFLATION: THE ECONOMICS OF THE CIVIL WAR. WILMINGTON, DEL: SCHOLARLY RESOURCES, INC., 2004. PP. xxix, 124. Economics, the science of human action, can help us understand almost every aspect of life, including war. This is why Tariffs, Block- ades, and Inflation: The Economics of the Civil War, by Mark Thorn- ton and Robert B. Eklelund, Jr., is a marvelous contribution to our understanding of the single most defining event in American history: the War Between the States. Thornton and Ekelund rigorously apply the basic principles of Austrian economics and public choice theory to illuminate some of the central causes and consequences of the war, including the dispute over the extension of slavery into the new territories, the tariff, central banking, wartime inflation, and the Union blockade, as well as the birth of ÒLincolnÕs New Deal,Ó the massive expansion of the federal government that occurred during and after the Lincoln administration. They do a superb job of explaining one of the themes of my own book, The Real Lincoln,1 that the ideological debate over centralized versus decentralized government, with the Hamiltonians pitted against the Jeffersonians at the time of the founding, manifested itself in a sev- enty-year debate over economic policy. Specifically, the debate evolved around the efficacy of protectionist tariffs, central banking, tax sub- sidies for corporations, and federal land policy.

  • Tariff Politics and Congressional Elections: Exploring the Cannon Thesis Andrew J. Clarke* University of Virginia Andrewclarke@V
    Tariff Politics and Congressional Elections: Exploring the Cannon Thesis Andrew J. Clarke* University of Virginia [email protected] Jeffery A. Jenkins University of Virginia [email protected] Kenneth S. Lowande University of Virginia [email protected] While a number of studies have examined the politics of tariff decision making in the United States, little work has examined the subsequent political effects of tariff policy. We help fill this gap in the literature by analyzing—both theoretically and empirically—the electoral implications of tariff revision. Specifically, we investigate the veracity of the Cannon Thesis – the proposition advanced by Speaker Joe Cannon in 1910 that the majority party in the U.S. House was punished when it made major revisions to the tariff. We find that from 1877 to 1934, major tariff revisions were, on average, associated with a significant loss of votes for majority-party members – both regionally and nationally – that translated into a loss of House seats. We find support for the notion that major tariff revisions generated inordinate uncertainty among various business interests, which the opposition party could then use (by leveraging fear and market instability) to mobilize its base and gain ground in the following election. Our results provide a new explanation for the delegation of tariff policymaking to the Executive branch. *All authors were equal contributors. Paper presented at the 2014 Annual Meeting of the Congress & History Conference, University of Maryland. We thank Richard Bensel and Chuck Finocchiaro for comments. Introduction The tariff – and international trade more generally – has been among the most contentious issues in American politics since the Nation’s inception.

Representative Mallory February 28, 1824 (Annals of the Cong~ess) NE of the most controversial economic issues confronting the 0 American public during the nineteenth century was that of pro- tection. The plea for a protective tariff had been raised as soon as the First Congress met in 1789. The issue was sharply debated off and on throughout the nineteenth century but never finally re- solved. There is now a large literature relating the outcome of this issue to the economic and political interests of various involved groups. Little effort has been made, however, to assess the impact of the tariff on economic growth, employment, and the dispersion of new technology. Nor has a close examination been made of the thought of Congressmen who participated in the tariff debates.
