Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a systematic presentation of John C. Calhounâs theory of the state, with special reference to his theory of the federal state. The author begins with a brief historical sketch of the theory of the legal nature of the Union, as it developed from the thirteen legally independent colonies. He then presents Calhounâs general theory of the state, his theory of the nature of the Union, and the deductions from this theory, with a critique of the same. Calhoun was the first to deny the possibility of a federal state and attempted to establish his claim on a legal basis. The book is significant because it provides an in-depth analysis of Calhounâs insights on the nature of the state, the nature of the Union, and the consequences that flowed from his theory.
