In the years before the Civil War the Northern United States abounded
with movements for social change. Reformers and reform organizations
created new institutions such as prisons, asylums and orphanages,
sought to transform the public schools, to eradicate social ills such
as prostitution and drunkenness in order to strengthen family life ,
and to reform the system of support for the poor. Many of these reform
agendas have modern counterparts in attempts to redefine welfare,
attack drug addiction and spousal abuse, and contain crime.
But the two most controversial reform movements, and the ones which
struck deepest at the foundations of American society, were the
campaigns for the abolition of slavery and the equality of women.
