Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book critiques modern critiques of the Constitution, particularly those labeling it as "reactionary" or "undemocratic." The author, George W. Carey, argues that Progressivism seeks to centralize power in Washington, distorting constitutional principles to promote an egalitarian society. He highlights the Progressivist distrust of self-government, suggesting it leads to an elitist regime reliant on judicial supremacy. Key issues surrounding the transformation of the original republic into a mass society are explored in depth, reflecting Carey's expertise as a professor of government.
