Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex relationship between federal and local authority in the United States, specifically during the pre-Civil War period. The author examines the question of popular sovereignty in the territories, a contentious issue that fueled the national debate over slavery. By analyzing the historical development of the territories, the book traces the evolution of American federalism and its influence on the political landscape of the time. The author meticulously explores the debates surrounding the power of Congress to regulate slavery in the territories, highlighting the contrasting views held by the Republican and Democratic parties. The book's examination of the "Jeffersonian Plan" for territorial government provides a fascinating window into the Founding Fathers' vision for westward expansion and its impact on the issue of slavery. By tracing the historical precedents set by the British colonial era, the author sheds light on the deep-seated anxieties and conflicting values that shaped the American political landscape in the antebellum period. Ultimately, this book offers a compelling analysis of the struggle to define the dividing line between federal and local power, a struggle that played a crucial role in shaping the course of American history.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - ''Popular Sovereignty In The Territories: The Dividing Line Between Federal And Local Authority'' is a book written by Stephen A. Douglas, a prominent American politician and senator from Illinois in the mid-19th century. The book focuses on the issue of popular sovereignty, which was a controversial concept during the time leading up to the American Civil War. Popular sovereignty is the idea that the people of a territory should have the power to decide whether or not to allow slavery within their borders. In the book, Douglas argues that popular sovereignty is the best solution to the problem of slavery in the territories, as it allows for local self-government and avoids federal interference. He discusses the historical context of the issue, including the Missouri Compromise of 1820 and the Compromise of 1850, and analyzes the legal and constitutional implications of popular sovereignty. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the political and social climate of the United States in the years leading up to the Civil War. It provides insight into the perspectives of pro-slavery and anti-slavery advocates and the complex debates surrounding the expansion of slavery into new territories. Overall, ''Popular Sovereignty In The Territories'' is a valuable resource for anyone interested in American history, politics, and the ongoing struggle for civil rights and equality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
