Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history of American industry and finance from the late 18th century to the mid-19th century. The author argues that the United States was one of the first countries to exhibit a tendency towards state intervention in industry, and that this movement was particularly pronounced during the early 19th century. The author examines the conditions that gave rise to this movement, including the opening of the West, the expansion of the transportation and banking industries, and the rise of protectionist sentiment. The author also discusses the various forms of state intervention that were employed during this period, including the construction of canals and roads, the chartering of banks, and the provision of subsidies to private enterprises. The book concludes by assessing the impact of state intervention on the development of American industry and finance, and argues that it played a significant role in the country's economic growth.
