'Vindiciae Gallicae' was James Mackintoshs first major publication,
a contribution to the debate begun by Edmund Burkes 'Reflections on
the Revolution in France' (published by Liberty Fund in 1999). The
success of Mackintoshs defence of the French Revolution propelled
him into the heart of London Whig circles. The turn of events in
France following the September 1792 Massacres caused Mackintosh,
along with other moderate Whigs, to revise his opinions and to move
closer to Burkes position. 'A Discourse on the Law of Nature and
Nations' was the introduction to a popular course of public
lectures at Lincolns Inn in 1799 and 1800. These lectures provided
Mackintosh with an opportunity to complete the evolution of his
political thought by expounding the principles of a Scottish
version of the science of natural jurisprudence dealing with 'the
rights and duties of men and of states', to announce his withdrawal
of support for the French Revolution, and to criticise former
allies on the radical wing of the reform move.
