Describe the population movement trend during the gilded age in the United States

The Gilded Age saw rapid economic and industrial growth, driven by technical advances in transportation and manufacturing, and causing an expansion of personal wealth, philanthropy, and immigration.

Politics during this time not only experienced corruption, but also increased participation. The ” political machine,” in which constituents supported a candidate in exchange for anticipated patronage, reached new heights.

The Gilded Age also was characterized by social reform, such as women’s suffrage, workplace improvements, prohibition, and civil service changes.

Women were politically active and played a large role in the economy, both as workers and consumers.

Much social thought of the time was characterized by explanations and justifications for the increasing wealth disparity among Americans, although there were many dissenting voices.
