Book Overview
In "The Remedy by State Interposition, or Nullification," William Harper presents a defense of nullification, the doctrine that a state can invalidate federal laws deemed unconstitutional. Written during a period of intense debate over states' rights and federal authority, this work offers a detailed argument for the sovereignty of individual states within the Union. Harper explores the constitutional basis for nullification, drawing upon historical precedents and legal reasoning to support his position.
This treatise provides valuable insight into the political and legal thought of the early 19th century, shedding light on the complex issues that ultimately led to the Civil War. "The Remedy by State Interposition, or Nullification" remains a significant text for understanding the ongoing tensions between state and federal power in American history.
