7 Mercantilist policies
Why did mercantilist policies develop and how did they affect the colonies? Navigation Acts - positives and negatives Enforcement Dominion of New England How did the colonists respond? Mercantilism – government control of the economy. Government controls what you can buy and sell. There is no free choice. Navigation Acts – restricted foreign shipping, required all European goods bound for the Americas to ship through England first, made it harder for the colonies to trade or be profitable, essentially excluded the Dutch from all trade w/England (Dutch East India Trading company), forbid colonist from trading w/foreign countries. Made England trade network exponentially bigger, led to the increased growth and power of the British Navy. The acts were followed until acts were passed on sugar and molasses. The Navigation Acts, among other things, would be a contributing cause of resentment by the colonist which eventually led to the American Revolution.
