This title was first published in 2001. In the tight frame of its
first twenty years, Massachusetts Bay dramatically altered its
constitutional order from a theocracy to an oligarchy, led by
magistrates who created their own authority and defined the limits
on their almost unlimited power. Debating-and Creating-Authority
examines this shift in constitutional order at various levels and
looks in particular at the efforts to create the theocracy and its
subsequent collapse in terms of a fundamental democratical flaw at
the centre of the theocratic ideal.
