Overview

Russell Hanson discovers in the history of democratic rhetoric in the United States a series of 'essential contests' over the meaning of democracy that have occurred in periods of political and socio-economic change. These contests were struggles for control of an extremely important political symbol and for the right to praise or condemn existing political practices as democratic or undemocratic.
