In the first study that combines an in-depth examination of
Madison's National Gazette essays of 1791-92 with a study of The
Federalist, Colleen Sheehan traces the evolution of Madison's
conception of the politics of communication and public opinion
throughout the Founding period, demonstrating how "the sovereign
public" would form and rule in America. Contrary to those scholars
who claim that Madison dispensed with the need to form an active
and virtuous citizenry, Sheehan argues that Madison's vision for
the new nation was informed by the idea of republican
self-government, whose manifestation he sought to bring about in
the spirit and way of life of the American people. Madison's story
is "the story of an idea" - the idea of America.
