FRQs
• 1971 “Andrew Jackson’s election in 1828 was the
consequence of the rise of democracy rather than
the start of a new democratic age.” Assess the
validity of this statement.
• 1996 Analyze the extent to which TWO of the
following influenced the development of democracy
between 1820 and 1840.
– Jacksonian economic policy
– Changes in electoral politics
– Second Great Awakening
– Westward movement
• 2001 The Jacksonian Period (1824-1848) has been celebrated as the era of
the “common man.” To what extent did the period live up to its
characterization? Consider TWO of the following in your response.
– Economic development
– Politics
– Reform Movements
• 1973 “Political movements in the United States often reflect a yearning for
the past.” Assess the validity of this generalization by applying it to both the
Jacksonians and the Populists.
• 1976 “Both the Jacksonian Democrats during 1824-1840 and the Populists
during 1890-1896 attacked and sought to root out special privilege in
American life. The Jacksonian Democrats attained power and succeeded;
the Populists failed.” Assess the validity of this view. Give roughly equal
attention to the Jacksonian Democrats and the Populists.
• 1989 In what ways were the late nineteenth century populists the heirs of
the Jacksonian democrats with respect to overall objectives AND specific
proposals for reform.
DBQs
• 1990 Jacksonian Democrats view themselves as the guardians of
the United States Constitution, political democracy, individual
liberty, and equality of economic opportunity. In light of the
following documents and your knowledge of the 1820's and
1830's, to what extent do you agree with Jacksonian's view of
themselves?
• 1980 "The Decision of the Jackson Administration to remove the
Cherokee Indians to lands west of the Mississippi River in the
1830's was more a reformulation of the national policy that had
been in effect since the 1790's than a change in that policy."
Assess the validity of this generalization with reference to the
moral, political, constitutional, and practical concerns that shaped
national Indian policy between 1789 and the mid-1830's.
• 2011b Explain the ways that participation in political campaigns
and elections in the United States changed between 1815 and
1840, and analyze forces and events that led to these changes.
