How the Congress acquired and maintained this power and how the delegates sought to resolve the complex theoretical problems that arose in forming a federal government are the issues confronted in Jack N. Rakove's searching reappraisal of Revolution-era politics. Avoiding the tendency to interpret the decisions of the Congress in terms of competing factions or conflicting ideologies, Rakove opts for a more pragmatic view. He reconstructs the political climate of the Revolutionary period, mapping out both the immediate problems confronting the Congress and the available alternatives as perceived by the delegates. He recreates a landscape littered with unfamiliar issues, intractable problems, unattractive choices, and partial solutions, all of which influenced congressional decisions on matters as prosaic as military logistics or as abstract as the definition of federalism. 410 0$aHopkins open publishing encore editions. 606 $aHistory of the Americas$2bicssc 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1783-1789 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1775-1783 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aHistory of the Americas 615 7$aHistory of the Americas 700 $aRakove$b Jack N.$f1947-$01088368 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910524678703321 996 $aThe Beginnings of National Politics$92605800 997 $aUNINA
