What was the tariff of 1832?
The Tariff of 1832 was a protectionist tariff in the United States. It was passed as a reduced tariff to remedy the conflict created by the tariff of 1828, but it was still deemed unsatisfactory by southerners and other groups hurt by high tariff rates. Southern opposition to this tariff and its predecessor, the Tariff of Abominations, caused the Nullification Crisis involving South Carolina. The tariff was later lowered down to 35 percent, a reduction of 10 percent, to pacify these objections. This was still not satisfactory, and the Tariff of 1833 resulted.
The text’s authors describe the Tariff of 1828 as “dishonest,” and angry southerners dubbed it the Tariff of Abominations.” Why What purposes lay behind the passage of this tariff law?
The purpose behind the passage of tariff law was to provide protection to American industries from European competition. However, the Tariff angered the southerners because they felt discriminated against since the Tariff had such a high demand and because of their overall economic style. The southerners utilized a free market method, which basically allowed them to import and export manufactured goods as they pleased. There was no tax implied. Thus, the Tariff bothered their economy since it was opposing the major factor of it; freedom.
How did the tariff crisis lead to the Nullification Act?
The high tariff meant that Southerners had to pay more for imports. Many people thought that the tariff was unconstitutional. Anger against the tariff increased in the South. Congress passed a new tariff in 1832 that lowered the rate slightly. South Carolina was not satisfied. It passed the Nullification Act, which declared the new tariff illegal. US President Andrew Jackson sent US troops to South Carolina to enforce Federal tariff laws.
