The Aftermath of Hamilton's “Report on Manufactures”
研究了汉密尔顿1791年《制造业报告》在国会的实际命运，发现其关税建议几乎全部被采纳，但补贴建议未获支持，且保护主义利益集团在1790年代从联邦党转向杰斐逊共和党。
Alexander Hamilton's “Report on Manufactures” (1791) is a classic document of U.S. economic policy, but its fate in Congress is not well known. It is commonly believed that the report was never implemented. Although Hamilton's proposals for bounties (subsidies) failed to receive support, virtually every tariff recommendation was adopted by Congress in early 1792. These tariffs were not highly protectionist because Hamilton feared discouraging imports, which were the critical tax base on which he planned to fund the public debt. As a consequence, protectionist interests shifted their political support from the Federalists to the Jeffersonian Republicans during the 1790s.
