Never Waste a Good (Constitutional) Crisis
The saying goes that you should ‘never waste a good crisis’. The greatest crisis is certainly a constitutional one, and therefore the greatest opportunity. The eighteenth and nineteenth centuries were pivotal in the United States of America, as the country expanded in geography and population, leading to multiple state-level and national constitutional crises. Marcus Alexander Gadson’s latest publication Sedition unpacks these frequent crises, their underlying dynamics and the elite groups seizing opportunities for personal gain, with repercussions for modern-day politics.
