Book Blurb

Previous studies have covered in great detail how the modern state slowly emerged from the early Renaissance through the seventeenth century, but we know relatively little about the next great act: the birth and transformation of the modern democratic state. And in an era where our democratic institutions are rife with conflict, it鈥檚 more important now than ever to understand how our institutions came into being. Stephen W. Sawyer鈥檚 Demos Assembled provides us with a fresh, transatlantic understanding of that political order鈥檚 genesis.
