The year 2026 marks the 250th anniversary of American independence, yetthe founding is controversial now in ways it has not been in decades. TheAmerican Enterprise Institute offers a major intellectual and educationalproject to reintroduce Americans to the unique value of their nationalinheritance. In the inaugural volume of an eight-book series, renowned historians andpolitical scientists explore what the contested idea of democracy meant tothose who participated in the American Revolution. For some, democracyrepresented a particular way to order government, while others understooddemocracy to be a transformative principle that would serve as thephilosophical bedrock of not just the new republic's political institutions butits social and cultural ones as well. Examining the democratic culture that was born out of the AmericanRevolution can help us understand the framework within which we continue todebate the structure and purpose of the system of government that binds ustogether today.
