13. Why did South Carolina react?
The U.S. suffered an economic downturn throughout the 1820s, and South Carolina was particularly affected (the population decreased by 56,000 whites and 30,000 slaves)
South Carolina had the largest proportion of slaves (55% in 1830). In large areas slaves vastly outnumbered whites. There existed both considerable fear of slave rebellion and a growing sensitivity to even the smallest criticism of "the peculiar institution.”
South Carolina’s fortunes were based first on the cultivation of rice and indigo, and then on cotton.

17. Nullification Crisis and Federalism
Article 10 The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
Calhoun argued that if a law contravenes the interest and will of a state, then they have the right to nullify it. This suggests that a state can ‘pick and choose’.
Side point: Nullification is not in the Constitution.

18. Consequences of the Nullification Crisis
Short Term
Long Term
Nullification was not purely a sectional issue… South Carolina stood alone
South Carolina was prepared to secede from the Union
Jackson, an advocate of states rights, arguable went further than any other individual to preserve what he saw as the national government’s legitimate powers = ironic?
Calhoun denied that nullification was a step towards disunion.
Stability in America would reply on federal government actions not trampling on state rights.
Nullification would not be a viable way to exert their will on national politics in the future.
