Contrary to modern popular perceptions and works by other academics, the Founding Fathers did not establish a constitutional system based upon a national popular sovereignty nor a powerful national government designed to fulfill a grand philosophical purpose. Instead, most Americans throughout the period maintained that a constitutional order based upon the sovereignty of states best protected and preserved liberty. Enshrining their preference for state sovereignty in Article II of the Articles of Confederation and in the Tenth and Eleventh Amendments to the federal constitution, Americans also claimed that state interposition{u2014}the idea that the states should intervene against any perceived threats to liberty posed by centralization{u2014}was an established and accepted element of state sovereignty.--Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Constitutional history $z United States $y 18th century. 650 0 $a States' rights (American politics) $x History $y 18th century. 650 7 $a Constitutional history. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00875777 650 7 $a States' rights (American politics) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01716031 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a 1700 - 1799 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Coleman, Aaron N., author. $t American Revolution, state sovereignty, and the American constitutional settlement, 1765-1800. $d Lanham, Maryland : Lexington Books, an imprint of the Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group, 2016 $z 9781498500630 $w (DLC) 2015047627 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210021232.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FC248CA4033911E8972C924897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
