	American System (economics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is a school of economic thought distinct from both the "British System" of Adam Smith and the "Socialist System" of Karl Marx.
		The name, "American System," was coined by Clay to distinguish it, as a school of thought, from the competing theory of economics at the time, the British System represented by Adam Smith in his work Wealth of Nations.
		After ten years of this system the American centennial celebration, celebrated in 1876 in Philadelphia at the Centennial Exposition, was formally opened by President Ulysses S. Grant [20], and served as a showcase for the achievements of the United States[21].

		American public schools at the primary and secondary level are functions of local authority, in contrast to European schools which are functions of centralized national or regional authority.
		If the American system can be said to be based on the principle of "contest", then then the football field became the symbolic representation of the contest which was increasingly moving out of the reach of most citizens.
		The very poverty of American schools until the mid-19th Century compelled a financial dependency on the philanthropy of wealthy alumni, a fact which was to weaken church ties and increasingly direct college activities along the interests of the benefactors.

	The American Apologists
		The American university system, particularly in the East, was dominated by strict apologists for the status quo.
		However, the 1870s and 1880s also saw the arrival of a crop of young American academics who had acquired their doctorates at German universities and were consequently schooled in the methods and philosophy of the German Historical School.
		The methodological and ideological battle between the "old school" apologists and the "new school" historicists came to a head in 1885, with the formation of the American Economic Association in 1885.

	From Cameralism to the American System (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Americans in general have absolutely no knowledge of the distinct and positive qualities of the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, and the American System of Economics, and where they come from.
		The actual lineage of the American System is the concept of the Commonwealth, an idea which emerged with force out of the period of the Italian Golden Renaissance, which was itself based on the Platonic republican tradition from the Greek classical period as well as Christianity.
		But the American System of Economics, which Franklin represented before the founding of the Constitution, and Alexander Hamilton directly represented afterwards, was at direct loggerheads with Smith's propaganda.

		One result of this system of appeals is that most of the decisions that law students and lawyers study are by appeals courts, especially ones near the top level of the system, since those decisions set precedents that can be used in arguing later cases.
		A case comes into the system either as a case of first impression, to be tried by a federal court, or on appeal to the Supreme Court from a verdict already given by a state supreme court.

	American Babylon: Part 1
		However, by the end of the nineteenth century, with the rise of the British-allied financial/political/media powerhouses of Morgan and Rockefeller, the American System of Economics began to be pushed aside in favor of Adam Smith's "free trade" policies.
		After receiving an economic education in America in the 1830's he returned to Germany and his endorsement of the American System of national economy became the basis for Germany's massive economic expansion in the second half of the 19th Century.
		On the other hand, the American System looks out for the interests of the nation as a whole, and for the general welfare of its citizens, which is done by promoting the producers of the nation, rather than the merchants or the consumers (most of whom are producers to begin with).

	Series on the American System, Part I
		There is no task more urgent for the American Congress, and the American people, than to immediately put in place an emergency economic recovery program based on the principles of the American System of Economics.
		This was the system established by the victory of the Anglo-Dutch financier oligarchy, centered in the power obtained by the British East India Company through the February 1763 Treaty of Paris, which concluded the preceding, mutually ruinous `Seven Years War' among the powers of continental Europe.
		From 1848 on, the power of the old feudal systems of Europe, such as those of the decadent Habsburgs, were largely absorbed in what became, increasingly, the appendages of the Anglo-Dutch Liberal monarchical system.

	Interview With Mason Gaffney on Corruption of Economics
		It would raise taxes on the richest Americans, and alien l andowners, too, without diluting in the least their incentives to work, to create capital, or to hire workers: it would actually fortify those incentives.
		The neo-classical economists abused both economics and the environment badly, as a byproduct of their drive to discredit classical political economy, and Henry George.
		Now they can say it is part of economics, while they proceed to ignore or trivia lize it in their major policy pronouncements, wherein endless territorial expansion continues to be not just a goal, but a necessity to make the system work.

		Part one analyzes the fundamental basis of American politics: a particular economic system and a particular constitutional structure.
		Economics, of course, does not explain all, but given the overlap between politics and economics, we begin by seeking to understand how they are inextricably linked.
		We conclude by returning to the theme of alternative explanations of American politics with a focus on whose interest is served by which explanation.

	FDR's `New Deal': An Example of American System Economics
		No wonder, that FDR during this time came in contact with politicians, who fought to solve the economic crisis with policies in the tradition of the American System and Lincoln's famous program for "internal improvements," the catchword for the nation's infrastructural development.
		At the end of September 1932, as the economic and financial crisis deepened and even more banks failed, with many citizens losing their savings, FDR said: "Every man has a right to his own property, which means a right to be assured, to the fullest extent attainable, in the safety of his savings.
		Among the many proofs that FDR was a conscious proponent of the "American System," is the speech he gave accepting the nomination as Presidential candidate for a second time in June 1936.

	SSRN-Adverse Selection, Political Parties, and Policy Delegation in the American Federal System by George Krause, Ann ...
		We extend research on the nexus of federalism, policy delegation, and American politics by asserting that partisan politics at both the national and subnational levels of government matter when explaining variations in U.S. federal intergovernmental policymaking.
		Using a novel data set of 459 U.S. public laws spanning the 1947-1998 period, we uncover support for the importance of vertical partisan institutional relationships on policy delegation in American federalism.
		The conclusions drawn from this study highlight the importance attached to vertical institutional relationships for understanding policy delegation by showing how state governments influence the balance of policymaking authority in the United States, even when formal decision-making authority resides at the national level.
