Product Description:
The opposing ideals of centralized and decentralized power are at the heart of many modern political debates - especially in the US, where supporters of these two conflicting views have been at loggerheads since the Founding Fathers drew up the Constitution."Redeeming American Democracy" presents a thorough and engaging examination of the rise and fall of the Confederate constitution - which championed the decentralization of power - and shows how many of the ideas found within its pages could stand us in good stead in this era of big governments, and help restore the true substance of democracy.
