Focusing on the foundational ideas of limited and distributed authority, this book explores the political theories of James Madison and Alexander Hamilton as articulated in The Federalist. It includes revised chapters that analyze the application of constitutional choice since the 1789 Constitution. The new concluding chapter challenges traditional notions of sovereign nation-states, offering a contemporary perspective on governance through the lens of twenty-first-century "citizen-sovereigns."
