Présentation de l'éditeur
The following paper is one of a series of studies carried on in my seminary in American history, with the design of contributing to an understanding of the relations between the political history of the United. -S tates,- arid the physiographic, social, and economic jibodijtipngf-underlying this history. A preliminary papeitmedi Ntt;- indicating some aspects of the proposed work,, Jiasjarkteady be en published under the title, The Significance of the Frontier in American History. (P roceedings oft e State Historical Society of Wisconsin, December 14, 1893; and Annual Report of the American Historical Association for 1893, Senate Misc. Doc. No. 104, 53d Cong., 2d Sess., in press). It is believed that many phases of our political history have been obscured by the attention paid to state boundaries, and to the sectional lines of North and South. At the same time the economic interpretation of our history has been neglected. In the study of the persistence of the struggle for state particularism in American constitutional history, it was inevitable that writers should make prominent the state as a political factor. But, from the point of view of the rise and growth of sectionalism and of nationalism, it is much more important to note the existence of great social and economic areas, independent of state lines, which have acted as units in political history, and which have changed their political attitude as they changed their economic organization, and divided into new groups.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the social and economic factors that shaped the public's response to America's proposed constitution, revealing the surprising ways in which it divided communities during a crucial period in history. The author shows how the constitution's fate was not solely determined by discussions on its provisions, but also by deep-rooted economic and social tensions, such as debt issues and paper money debates that were hotly contested in the years leading up to its ratification. This book challenges the conventional interpretation and brings to light the historical foundations of the arguments for state sovereignty and the dangers to liberty from federal power in ways priorly overlooked by scholars. One of the book's greatest strengths is its thorough mapping of the local areas that supported and opposed the constitution, demonstrating how sectional groupings within each state were influenced by natural physiographic, social and economic factors. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331383949_0
