Westward Expansion and Jackson
Westward expansion and Jackson’s economic policies influenced the development of democracy by maintaining a republic where economic and political power were widely spread, social classes were restricted and yeomen farmers ruled themselves through local governments. By upholding this Jeffersonian type democracy, America was able to prevent drastic social and fiscal changes which would have changed national government between 1820 and 1850.
Westward expansion was key in preventing economic concentration and the rise of densely populated cities.

the rise of densely populated cities comes the threat of lower class civil revolution and revolt as well as the threat of an oligarchy based government due to social classes. Jackson’s economic policies were also crucial in the development of democracy of the time because it limited the power of government which upheld the democratic theory of checks and balances and limited the power of the rising corporations reducing the threat of economic concentration.
