AUTHOR
SUMMARY
"Ultimately, Ackerman is less interested in the story of the court and judicial review than he is in the rise of new forms of popular sovereignty in 1800. And on this point he has made a substantial contribution to our understanding of the early Republic. His account helps to make sense of the conflict between the Federalists' aristocratic and legalistic approach to politics and the Republicans' modern belief in having a mandate to carry out the will of the people."Ackerman, Bruce A. is the author of 'Failure of the Founding Fathers Jefferson, Marshall, and the Rise of Presidential Democracy', published 2005 under ISBN 9780674018662 and ISBN 0674018664.
