The sources of Reconstruction in the United States primarily stemmed from the desire to reintegrate the Southern states after the Civil War, address the rights of freed African Americans, and rebuild the war-torn economy. Competing visions emerged between President Abraham Lincoln's more lenient approach, aimed at rapid reunification, and the Radical Republicans' vision, which sought to enforce civil rights and implement significant social reforms. Additionally, Southern white resistance and the desire for maintaining racial hierarchies clashed with the goals of African Americans and their allies who fought for equality and justice. This complex interplay of goals ultimately shaped the trajectory and legacy of Reconstruction.
