Alexander Hamilton and the Duty and Obligation of Government (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu
Reviews
Description
Immersed in an age old educational system, the Revolutionary generation placed no uncertain value on virtue and duty. This education was also a social conditioning which existed on both sides of the Atlantic for hundreds of years. Religion and education served the Revolutionary generation by reinforcing an innate sense of duty wherein all obligation was reciprocal. This was transmitted through the ages by custom, which over time became tradition and finally comes to us as heritage. Understanding the different natures of virtue, is to understand the struggle between capitalism and republicanism. Capitalism had a certain impact upon America's infant republic much to the chagrin and disillusionment of its founders. The quality of that capitalism, rooted in the Roman virtue of expansion and domination of trade, backed by an elite military, bereft of classical and Christian principles was how the Federalists unknowingly altered the principal goals and aims of the Revolution. It is also to find out how and why Federalism, because of Hamilton's influence and intercession, produced unintended and unwelcome consequences.
