Historians as notable as Carl Becker and Edmund Morgan famously have asked this question or versions of it, but here Roney approaches it afresh by examining local governance and civic associations in Philadelphia, the largest colonial American city. How did popular participation in charity, schools, the militia, and informal banks prepare people to adopt radical ideas and take to the streets protesting against tyranny in the 1760s and 70s? Roney's GOVERNED BY A SPIRIT OF OPPOSITION will both be an important addition to the current literature on public life in early America, and also to the wider literature on urban governance in the British Atlantic in the eighteenth century. She sheds light on the powerful roles played by men acting in the political and constitutional circumstances of early Philadelphia leading up to the Revolution"--$cProvided by publisher. 330 2 $a"During the colonial era, ordinary Philadelphians played an unusually active role in political life. Because the city lacked a strong central government, private individuals working in civic associations of their own making shouldered broad responsibility for education, poverty relief, church governance, fire protection, and even taxation and military defense. These organizations dramatically expanded the opportunities for white men--rich and poor alike--to shape policies that immediately affected their communities and their own lives. In Governed by a Spirit of Opposition, Jessica Choppin Roney explains how allowing people from all walks of life to participate in political activities amplified citizen access and democratic governance. Merchants, shopkeepers, carpenters, brewers, shoemakers, and silversmiths served as churchwardens, street commissioners, constables, and Overseers of the Poor. They volunteered to fight fires, organized relief for the needy, contributed money toward the care of the sick, took up arms in defense of the community, raised capital for local lending, and even interjected themselves in Indian diplomacy. Ultimately, Roney suggests, popular participation in charity, schools, the militia, and informal banks empowered people in this critically important colonial city to overthrow the existing government in 1776 and re-envision the parameters of democratic participation. Governed by a Spirit of Opposition argues that the American Revolution did not occasion the birth of commonplace political activity or of an American culture of voluntary association. Rather, the Revolution built upon a long history of civic engagement and a complicated relationship between the practice of majority-rule and exclusionary policy-making on the part of appointed and self-selected constituencies"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aPolitical participation$zPennsylvania$zPhiladelphia$xHistory 606 $aMunicipal government$zPennsylvania$zPhiladelphia$xCitizen participation$xHistory 607 $aPhiladelphia (Pa.)$xHistory$yColonial period, ca. 1600-1775 607 $aPhiladelphia (Pa.)$xPolitics and government$y17th century 607 $aPhiladelphia (Pa.)$xPolitics and government$y18th century 615 0$aPolitical participation$xHistory. 615 0$aMunicipal government$xCitizen participation$xHistory. 676 $a974.8/11 686 $aHIS036020$aPOL000000$aBUS023000$2bisacsh 700 $aRoney$b Jessica C$g(Jessica Choppin),$f1978-$01674250 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811811403321 996 $aGoverned by a spirit of opposition$94038915 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01699nas 2200445- 450 001 9910391360203321 005 20210914213022.0 035 $a(OCoLC)856580406 035 $a(CKB)2670000000395413 035 $a(CONSER)--2014267031 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000395413 100 $a20130814a20129999 |-- - 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aAfrican East-Asian affairs 210 1$aStellenbosch, South Africa :$cCentre for Chinese Studies, Stellenbosch University,$d[2012]- 215 $a1 online resource 300 $aRefereed/Peer-reviewed 311 $a2308-8699 330 $a"The African East-Asian Affairs is an academic journal that focusses on topic areas related to domestic developments in East Asian countries (China, Japan, Korea and ASEAN states) as well as the international relations of these states and on their engagement with, or policies towards Africa"--Focus and scope. 517 1 $aAEAA 517 1 $aChina monitor 531 0 $aAfr.
