Book Synopsis The Intellectual Origins of Mass Parties and Mass Schools in the Jacksonian Period by : Julie M. Walsh
Book excerpt: Argues that in the 1830s and 1840s, all three main US political parties, despite their rhetorical differences, maintained consensus about citizenship training through educating children, which produced the first generation of politically passive Americans content to vote loyally for their party and demand little or no input into the formation of its platform. This in turn, is seen as essential for building the type of political party that has endured since. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
