Book Description:
Although John C. Calhoun (1782-1850) remains one of the major figures in American political thought, many of his critics have tried to discredit him as merely a Southern partisan whose ideas were obsolete even during his lifetime. In Calhoun and Popular Rule, H. Lee Cheek, Jr., attempts to correct such misconceptions by presenting Calhoun as an original political thinker who devoted his life to the recovery of a 'proper mode of popular rule.' He argues that Calhoun had a coherent, systematic view of human nature and society and made a lasting contribution to the theory of constitutionalism and democracy.
'Definitive.'--Clyde Wilson, Editor, The Papers of John C. Calhoun
'A rich and well-argued book.'—American Political Science Review
'Perhaps even the best single study of Calhoun's political thought.'--Civil War History
