History and Principles of the Democratic Party - Alonzo Hamby

Political parties, neither mentioned in the Constitution nor foreseen by the Founders, arose almost immediately and have, generally speaking, served the nation well. The two-party system as we know it today dates to the 1850s. This first CCA of the 2016-2017 academic year will consider the origin and development of the party system, as well as the history, principles, and current state of the Democratic and Republican parties.

Alonzo Hamby is an author and Distinguished Professor Emeritus of History at Ohio University.
