Preserving the White Man's Republic: Jacksonian Democracy, Race, and the Transformation of American Conservatism
Joshua A. Lynn
Responding to fears of African American and female political agency, this book shows how Democrats in the late 1840s and 1850s reinvented themselves as “conservatives” and repurposed Jacksonian Democracy as a tool for local majorities of white men to police racial and gender boundaries by democratically withholding rights.
