Republicanism and Liberalism in America and the German States
represents the cooperative effort of a group of American and German
scholars to move the historical debate on Republicanism and
Liberalism to a new stage. Previously, the relationship between
Republican and Liberal ideas, concepts and world views has been
discussed in the context of American revolutionary and late
eighteenth-century history. While the German states did not
experience successful revolutions like those in North America and
France, Republican and Liberal ideas and 'language' deeply affected
German political thinking and culture, especially in the southern
states. The essays published in this book expand the time frame of
the debate into the first half of the nineteenth century, applying
an innovative and comparative German-American perspective. By
systematically studying the similarities and differences in the
understanding of Republicanism and Liberalism in the United States
and German states, the collection stimulates efforts toward a
comprehensive interpretation of political, intellectual and social
developments in the 'modernizing' Atlantic world of the eighteenth
and nineteenth centuries.
