Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Problems of Reconstruction Another illustration may be taken from our tariff history. After our experience with protec tive tariffs from 1816 to 1833, the trend from the latter date, with the exception of the act of 1842, was towards a lower level of duties. The Civil War legislation changed this course of our history. Higher and higher rates were imposed to protect domestic industries burdened with heavy internal taxes until, in 1865, we had reached a high general level of duties. The war acts were emergency measures. But again, new industrial conditions were created, vested interests appeared, with the result that revision of the tariff proved a most dif ficult matter. Indeed, after several decades, a high tariff came to be regarded as the established policy of the country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Problems of Peace: A Study of the Essential Needs of Massachusetts During the Reconstruction Period Intricate and important as were the problems of war preparation and participation, it is likely that in the end they may seem simple compared to the difficulties which face us in its readjustment to normal peace conditions. The obstacles in the way of a military victory have been overcome because of the fact that there were no differences of opinion as to the main object to be attained. Individual and party theories as to economic and administrative policies have been subordinated for the successful accomplishment of the end in view. The world will never again, return to where it was four years ago. What is called conservative Opinion must modify its aims to include the best part of what is called radical policy. On the other hand, radicalism, as shown by its inevitable results when put in actual practice, as to-day in Russia, where the radicals have taken the property of the nation without law, is an even greater menace than the militarism now justly defeated in this great war. It is a time for tolerance, of getting together, and in the compromise of opinion to work out a reasonable and saving program. The United States, which gave real' democracy to the world, has during the last fourteen decades, shown that under it, real progress never before witnessed in the history of the world was possible. During the war the American people generally refused to give serious consideration to reconstruction problems because of the fear that this might divert them from the immediate prosecution and winning of the war, and as a result we are as unprepared for peace as we were for war. The purpose of this pamphlet is to direct attention not solely to the larger questions of reconstruction now being considered the world over, but especially to the not less important because purely local problems which are necessary to understand and to remedy that Massachusetts may hold its own in after the war competition.

Download or read book Black Reconstruction in America The Oxford W E B Du Bois written by W. E. B. Du Bois and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-02-01 with total page 1134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: W. E. B. Du Bois was a public intellectual, sociologist, and activist on behalf of the African American community. He profoundly shaped black political culture in the United States through his founding role in the NAACP, as well as internationally through the Pan-African movement. Du Bois's sociological and historical research on African-American communities and culture broke ground in many areas, including the history of the post-Civil War Reconstruction period. Du Bois was also a prolific author of novels, autobiographical accounts, innumerable editorials and journalistic pieces, and several works of history. Black Reconstruction in America tells and interprets the story of the twenty years of Reconstruction from the point of view of newly liberated African Americans. Though lambasted by critics at the time of its publication in 1935, Black Reconstruction has only grown in historical and literary importance. In the 1960s it joined the canon of the most influential revisionist historical works. Its greatest achievement is weaving a credible, lyrical historical narrative of the hostile and politically fraught years of 1860-1880 with a powerful critical analysis of the harmful effects of democracy, including Jim Crow laws and other injustices. With a series introduction by editor Henry Louis Gates, Jr., and an introduction by David Levering Lewis, this edition is essential for anyone interested in African American history.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Air Service: Problems of War and of Reconstruction The Air Service has been almost universally misunderstood, even among its friends. It has been so wholly new and so firing to the imagination, its development has been so enshrouded in secrecy on the one hand, and so emblazoned by misrepresentation on the other, that even men actually officers of its staff are bewildered and confused as to the actual facts. It is doubtful that so little of the truth was ever known about an enterprise of such surpassing national importance. The story of the Air Service is a story of contrasts running from high lights into the deepest shadows. Initiated in a burst of enthusiasm and imagination almost unparalleled in our history, driven along the road towards accomplishment with skill and energy but without the supergenius that alone could have brought success, set upon at the most unfavorable moment by an outburst of public disappointment, yet finally crowned with a superb record over the lines in Belgium, France, and Italy, it is a story that well deserves to be understood. It has had its failures, serious failures indeed, but it has also had its successes. We have heard very much of the former and very little of the latter.

Download or read book Civil War and Reconstruction in Alabama Classic Reprint written by Walter Lynwood Fleming and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 876 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Civil War and Reconstruction in Alabama This work was begun some five years ago as a study of Recon struction in Alabama. As the field opened it seemed to me that an account of ante-bellum conditions, social, economic, and political, and of the effect of the Civil War upon ante-bellum institutions would be indispensable to any just and comprehensive treatment of the later period. Consequently I have endeavored to describe briefly the society and the institutions that went down during Civil War and Reconstruction. Internal conditions in Alabama during the war period are discussed at length; they are important, because they influenced seriously the course of Reconstruction. Through out the work I have sought to emphasize the social and economic problems in the general situation, and accordingly in addition to a sketch of the politics I have dwelt at some length upon the educa tional, religious, and industrial aspects of the period. One point in particular has been stressed throughout the whole work, viz. The fact of the segregation of the races within the state - the blacks mainly in the central counties, and the whites in the north ern and the southern counties. This division of the state into white counties and black counties has almost from the be ginning exercised the strongest influence upon the history of its people. The problems of white and black in the Black Belt are not always the problems of the whites and blacks of the white counties. It is hoped that the maps inserted in the text will assist in making clear this point. Perhaps it may be thought that undue space is devoted to the history of the negro during War and Re construction, but after all the negro, whether passive or active, was the central figure of the period.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Problems of Reconstruction: Lectures and Addresses, Delivered at the Summer Meeting at the Hampstead Garden Suburb, August, 1917 The Social Science Congresses of former days could boast of a similar aim, and, as we know, many of the finer minds and keener spirits of those days played their parts in them. But I am not sure that they ever attempted to cover so much ground as that on which we are entering to-day, and of two things I am quite certain: first, that they never discussed great issues at a time so momentous, and next, that, meeting as they did in great centres of population, their gatherings were never held in surroundings so delightful and so socially stimulating as those of the Garden Suburb.
