Transcript War of 1812 and Nationalism

War of 1812 and Upsurge
of Nationalism
Theme: The American effort in the War of 1812 was plagued by
poor strategy, political divisions, and increasingly aggressive
British power. Nevertheless, the United States escaped with a
stalemated peace settlement, and soon turned its isolationist back
to the Atlantic European world.
Theme: The aftermath of the War of 1812 produced a strong
surge of American nationalism that was reflected in economics,
law, and foreign policy. The rising nationalistic spirit and sense of
political unity was, however, threatened by the first severe
sectional dispute over slavery.
Theme: Chief Justice John Marshall’s Supreme Court
strengthened the federal government by supporting a “loose
construction” of the Constitution, asserting the federal judiciary’s
power over state courts, and enforcing economic provisions ,in the
Constitution (interstate commerce, sanctity of contracts).
