The Political Culture of the American Whigs: Emersion: Emergent Village resources for communities of faith

Autor Daniel Walker Howe
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 ian 1984
Howe studies the American Whigs with the thoroughness so often devoted their party rivals, the Jacksonian Democrats. He shows that the Whigs were not just a temporary coalition of politicians but spokesmen for a heritage of political culture received from Anglo-American tradition and passed on, with adaptations, to the Whigs' Republican successors. He relates this culture to both the country's economic conditions and its ethnoreligious composition.
