American Revolution British colonial policy Salutary neglect did not enforce mercantilist restrictions on trade in order to encourage profits North America was less important than West Indies Seven Years’ War Bankrupted British government Began enforcing trade restrictions 1765 passed new tax laws to make colonies pay for war Rebellion North American colonies refused to pay taxes without Parliamentary representation

American Revolution War for Independence Rebellion Declaration of Independence formally separated American colonies from British government based on Enlightenment principles (Locke, Rousseau) Continental Congress Headed by wealthy business class (‘new’ elites) Established organized army and navy Constitution Representative democratic republic Based off Enlightenment principles (Montesquieu) Voting privileges restricted to upper classes of society

American Revolution British wartime strategy ‘divide and conquer’ 3-pronged invasion of New York (‘heart’ of colonies’) Armies converge on Albany, New York Failure due to St. Leger withdrawing to Canada, Burgoyne’s surrender at Saratoga, and Howe’s redirection to Philadelphia American wartime strategy ‘survival’ Keep army together and win enough battles to encourage foreign intervention Combined conventional warfare with insurgency Destroy domestic support for British occupation

American Revolution Defeat Logistics Leadership Popular support Foreign intervention Legacy Model of successful political revolution Embodiment of Enlightenment ideals Political change without social or cultural change
