How did governments respond to the tremendous economic changes of theIndustrial Evolution?

Tremendous changes in the economy, such as the recession of the 1870's, caused the government to step in. Governments main purpose of action was to boost consumption and control markets and prices. New laws were put in place to protect innovation with more secure patents and started the development of limited liability corporations. 1870's to 1880's: governments started interfering with free trade, unlike the past. They imposed tariffs on any imported agricultural or manufactured goods. The tariffs boosted the sell of domestic product. Yet, in some places like Latin America, tariffs were five times as much as those in Europe.

What were the social consequences and reactions to 19th century migrations?

Consequences: Enclaves of migrants from a single country or area were formed in their new homes. In the Chinese Diaspora of the 19th century to around 1949, Chinese migrated our of China, primarily because of wars, starvation, invasions, and political corruption. When they arrived in the Caribbean, they were required to serve eight year indentured servant contracts. Many of these migrants were illiterate and manual laborers. These Chinese indentured servants were used by the British to replace the recently abolished slave labor, so many indentured servants worked on islands like Jamaica and Trinidad on sugar plantations. Many of the oppressed indentured servants fled to Cuba to escape the British.

Reactions: Many Chinatowns were established in the United States because of the vast majority of Chinese immigrants in this time period. The first was established in San Francisco in the 1840s, and remains one of the largest and most prominent Chinatowns in the nation.
