Riemer, Neil
James Madison \ Creating the american constitution \ Neil Reimer - 1 - 203 p.
P. 183
1. Political theory and prudent guidance 2. The republican dilemma in the New World 3. Nationalism and the State of Disunion 4. The new federalism 5. Faction and the state of disunion 6. The anti republican danger and democratic politics 7. Madison and democracy in America
Neal Riemer examines the political theory of one of the chief architects of that venerable document. The author elaborates on the philosophical and political context of the first fifty years of the new nation, showing how complex and unprecedented its problems were: How would it be possible to establish and maintain a free and republican government in a nation of such large size and with such divergent interests among its states? As Reimer concludes, we must attribute part of the continuing success of the American Constitution to Madison´s prophetic political vision.
