"The War of 1812 has been called America’s second War of Independence. This paper takes up that view, and it aims to elucidate the war objectives and geopolitical perspective of the Madisonian Republicans who launched the War in June of 1812. Given that the Revolutionary War was America’s anti-colonial war, which successfully removed Great Britain’s direct political and economic control, then, taking account of the geopolitical circumstances of the early republic as outlined below, it is reasonable to view the War of 1812 as America’s war against neo-colonialism—understanding neo-colonialism as a matter of economic, political or cultural policies designed or functioning so that a greater power maintains indirect control over another area or people."
