A Defense Of The Constitutions Of Government Of The United States Of America, Against The Attack Of M. Turgot

""A Defense of the Constitutions of Government of the United States of America, Against the Attack of M. Turgot"" is a book written by John Adams, one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. The book was written in response to a critique of the American system of government by French economist Anne-Robert-Jacques Turgot, who had argued that the American system was flawed and that it would eventually lead to instability and chaos.In this book, Adams argues that Turgot's critique is based on a flawed understanding of American government and that the American system is actually well-designed to prevent the problems that Turgot predicts. Adams defends the separation of powers between the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government, arguing that this system prevents any one branch from becoming too powerful and abusing its authority. He also defends the concept of federalism, which divides power between the national government and the states, arguing that this system allows for greater flexibility and adaptability in government.Overall, ""A Defense of the Constitutions of Government of the United States of America, Against the Attack of M. Turgot"" is a passionate defense of the American system of government and an important contribution to the ongoing debate about the best way to structure a democratic society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
