Prilutskii Vitalii Viktorovich
Bryansk State University named after academician I. G. Petrovsky
Abstract. The article is dedicated to the American Republican Party, which had originated in 1843 and was active until 1847. It was the Nativist organization, which struggled against the influence of national minorities in the country and resisted the mass influx of foreigners in the period before the Civil War. In the USA the notion "Nativism" was used for the ideology identification of the native Americans of Protestant religion, who were dissatisfied with immigrants and immigration from Catholic countries. American Nativism was on the rise in the 1840s and became an important political factor.
