Francis Lieber on Institutional Liberty, Secession, and the Modern State
Francis Lieber (1800–1872), professor at South Carolina College and Columbia College, New York City, spent his career grappling with the nature of political organization. A German émigré, Lieber’s political theory of the state grew around a critique of social contract theory, which he believed fostered a “Gallican liberty” prone to centralization and democratic absolutism. He contrasted this tradition with one premised on a healthy “Anglican libe…
Daniel Peart. Lobbyists and the Making of US Tariff Policy, 1816–1861
Political historians of the antebellum United States have covered much terrain in the last century.

Calvin Schermerhorn. The Business of Slavery and the Rise of American Capitalism, 1815–1860
An excellent and eminently readable book, The Business of Slavery and the Rise of American Capitalism, 1815–1860, joins a growing literature showing precisely how slaveholders and traders fulfilled personal and business ambitions by commodifying African American bodies. Even nonspecialists have probably heard of major conferences on slavery and capitalism and works by Michael Tadman, Steven Deyle, Joshua D. Rothman, Edward E. Baptist, and Walter …

Modernizing a Slave Economy: The Economic Vision of the Confederate Nation
Economics and the Confederacy Could it be that the strong central state of the twentieth century—praised by some Americans and lampooned by others—had antecedents in, of all places, an antebellum southern commercial agrarianism that eventually tried to destroy the United States? In this w
