This analysis by Raymond Flanagan, David Hazlett, and Kassie Miller explores how Progressives in the early years of their movement fluctuated between liberal and conservative principles during the economic depression of the 1890s. Key topics include the rise of big business, the decline of agriculture, the impact of the 1893 depression, and the fight over the gold standard. Defining moments for Progressives aimed at improving American life reveal the interplay of governmental responsibility in the delicate balance between protecting citizens and overreaching authority.
