The downfall of Mercantilism Theory was the acceptance of Adam Smith's 'Wealth of Nations' as the foundation of modern economics. Smith believed Mercantilism formed a negative consumer environment, based on collusion between industry and government. He felt that if free trade were implemented, it benefited all parties. The publication of 'Wealth of Nations' ended the period of Mercantilism.
Having tasted economic independence for too long a period,the American colonist had no desire to return to the mercantilist policies endured by the colonies of the other European nations.
During the period of exploration and colonization, all the major powers were mercantilist nations. The object of mercantilism was to minimize imports that cost the nation money, and maximize exports that made the nation money. Colonies were a means of reducing a country's dependence on foreign nations. Each colony would provide a raw material to the Mother Country and this would allow the nation to not have to purchase that product from another nation. The object was to sell more than you bought.
I measured from graph I found earlier today to determine that the valuations of homes, nationally, increased by a factor of 3.2 during the period Jan 1970 to Jan 1980. This corresponds to an average (geometric average) of about 12% growth annually during that period.
Mercantilism is an economic policy that attempts to gain revenue for the country based on a balance of trade. Typical policies under mercantilism include high taxation and a favor of exporting goods over importing them. Mercantilism was important in France in the 16th century. During this time France's finance minister was Colbert, who led the mercantile movement in the country. The country worked hard to ensure more exports than imports, even to the point of bringing in artists and tradesmen from other countries to make goods in France. During this period, the French government controlled how most of the goods made in the country were produced. France rose to great power under this economic policy.
