A History Of American Political Theories is a comprehensive analysis of the political theories that have shaped American politics from the colonial period to the early 20th century. Written by Charles Edward Merriam and first published in 1915, this book examines the evolution of American political thought and the key ideas and figures that have influenced political philosophy in the United States.The book is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a particular period in American history. Merriam begins by examining the political theories of the colonial period, including the ideas of John Locke and the influence of the Enlightenment on American political thought. He then moves on to the Revolutionary period, exploring the ideas of Thomas Paine, Thomas Jefferson, and other key figures in the American Revolution.The book also covers the period of the Constitution and the early Republic, examining the Federalist Papers and the debates surrounding the ratification of the Constitution. Merriam then moves on to the Jacksonian era and the rise of populism in American politics. He also analyzes the political theories of the Civil War and Reconstruction periods, including the ideas of Abraham Lincoln and the impact of the Civil War on American political thought.Finally, Merriam discusses the political theories of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, including the rise of Progressivism and the influence of thinkers such as John Dewey and Herbert Croly. Throughout the book, Merriam provides detailed analysis of the key ideas and figures that have shaped American political thought, making this book an essential resource for anyone interested in American politics and political philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
