In this book, Juhani Rudanko sheds important new light on James
Madison's contributions to the debates on freedom of speech, during
the formative period of 1789 to 1801 in the United States. When
Madison proposed amendments that eventually formed the core of the
Bill of Rights (June 8, 1789), the reaction from the Federalist
party majority was initially hostile. Rudanko examines Madison's
patterns of argumentation in eventually persuading the House of
Representatives to proceed with consideration of the Bill of
Rights. The book also presents new insights on key debates of the
Sedition Act, examining initial Federalist arguments when the Act
was approved, July 1798, and identifies changes in those arguments
soon afterwards.
