How did the state constitutions of the 1770s and 1780s address the goals of republican government?
State constitutions written in the 1770s and 1780s worked from a coherent political theory that was decisively American. General commitments to liberty, political equality, majority rule, limited government (that’s very Republican), federalism, and separation of powers were codified and operationalized. ChaCha!
