Video Title

Slavery and the Constitution: a Neo-Madisonian Perspective

Body

Ever since the emergence of the abolitionist movement there has been great controversy over just how supportive of slavery the Constitution of the United States was. Neither side, Zuckert argues, was approaching the constitution in the way most revealing of the truth about slavery and the Constitution, a way Zuckert calls neo-Madisonian after the constitution’s chief architect, James Madison.
