工业经济与美国的诞生和第二次资产阶级革命的爆发有什么关系?直到19世纪末和20世纪初美国政府采取了什么内外政策使其工业生产跃居并保持世界首位的?  

答案

18世纪中期,美国制造业有很大发展,是民族经济的重要组成部分;和英国政府颁布的限制北美贸易和工业生产的法令矛盾激化。

19世纪20年代初开始工业革命以来,北方工业发展迅速和南方种植园经济的差别显著,导致两种经济制度之间的矛盾不可调和。

内外政策:取消奴隶制;开发西部促进农业发展和国内市场统一扩大;允许欧亚移民进入美国;创造有利投资环境吸引西欧剩余资本;重视科学技术的应用;在工业运输部门成立托拉斯。

在瓜分世界掠夺殖民地和势力范围方面与其他国家展开争夺活动;交替使用“大棒政策”和“金元外交”;在门罗宣言的掩饰下对拉丁美洲进行渗透和侵略;提出门户开放政策,运用自己经济优势,扩大贸易。

本题是一道简答题,难度不大,主要是对学生进行概括、归纳能力的考查。第一问实际是对美国两次资产阶级革命根本原因的考查;第二问,考查学生对美国在19世纪末20世纪初工业生产跃居并保持世界首位的内外政策认识掌握情况,解答中,要注意抓住促进其工业发展的政策去归纳、总结。
