A Revolution in Favor of Government:: Origins of the U.S. Constitution and the Making of the American State
Edling, Max. M (Research Fellow and University Lecturer, Uppsala University and Visiting Fellow, Department of History, Cornell University, Research Fellow and University Lecturer, Uppsala University and Visiting Fellow, Department of History, Cornell Uni
Edling argues that during the US Constitutional debates, the Federalists were concerned with building a state able to act vigorously in defence of US national interests. The Constitution was their promise of the benefits of government without its costs. They proposed statecraft rather than central authority as the solution to governing.
