Adams, John Quincy

Born July 11, 1767; died Feb. 23, 1848. American statesman and diplomat; son of John Adams.

As the first US minister to Russia (1809–14), John Quincy Adams brought about the strengthening of Russian-American relations. From 1815 to 1817 he was US minister to Great Britain and during the period 1817–24 served as secretary of state; Adams was one of the principal authors of the Monroe Doctrine. He was president of the USA from 1825 to 1829, and in the interests of the industrial bourgeoisie he introduced a high protective tariff (1828). This action created discontent among planters and farmers. Later, as a member of Congress, Adams represented the moderate wing of the opponents of slavery.
