Product Information

Maloy's examination of seventeenth-century American political ideas concludes that the origins of distinctively modern democratic thinking can be located, not in eighteenth-century America and France, but in the tiny New England colonies in the previous century, and that the key idea was not electoral consent but rather non-electoral accountability.

Reviews
"Maloy has introduced an important thesis that deserves wide attention." J.C.D. Clark, University of Kansas, The Journal of American History, 'J. S. Maloy's remarkable new book locates an alternative strand of democratic thought in early colonial America. Maloy shows how neglected figures such as John Bargraves, John Robinson, Thomas Hooker, and Israel Stoughton promoted popular control of, rather than mere consent to, public officials, and advocated institutions of popular scrutiny and sanction of magistrates in addition to general elections. Maloy decisively refutes dominant scholarly narratives asserting that 17th and 18th century republicans uniformly preferred strict electoral models of representation and explicitly disavowed more extensive accountability practices associated with ancient and medieval popular governments. Not only does Maloy shift the original, modern democratic moment back from the English, American and French Revolutions to early colonial Virginia, Bermuda, and Rhode Island, he also invaluably helps us to reconceptualize the place of accountability in democratic theory and practice today. In sum, [The] Colonial [American] Origins of Modern Democratic Thought is a strikingly original contribution to historical and programmatic political theory.' John P. McCormick, University of Chicago, 'Maloy achieves two remarkable feats in this book: he reintroduces us to the under-appreciated political theory of colonial America, and he expands the range of institutional alternatives we should consider in addressing the problem of holding our representatives accountable. Maloy demonstrates that whereas anti-democratic forces in the colonial era argued that elections were a sufficient means of ensuring accountability, committed democrats advocated supplementing elections with other mechanisms. This is a fascinating and provocative work, and is of critical importance for scholars of the history and theory of democratic institutions.' Melissa Schwartzberg, Columbia University, 'Jason Maloy's book is a superb exercise in historical retrieval. But his book should be interest far more than specialists in early American political thought; his book offers excitingly different ways of looking at the general issues of political representation and elections that are worth thinking about in the 21st century.' Sanford Levinson, University of Texas Law School and author of Our Undemocratic Constitution, "Jason Maloy's book is a superb exercise in historical retrieval. But his book should be interest far more than specialists in early American political thought; his book offers excitingly different ways of looking at the general issues of political representation and elections that are worth thinking about in the 21st century." -Sanford Levinson, University of Texas Law School and author of Our Undemocratic Constitution, "Maloy achieves two remarkable feats in this book: he reintroduces us to the underappreciated political theory of colonial America, and he expands the range of institutional alternatives we should consider in addressing the problem of holding our representatives accountable.

This is a fascinating and provocative work, and is of critical importance for scholars of the history and theory of democratic institutions." -Melissa Schwartzberg, Columbia University, "Maloy makes a compelling case for the historical and intellectual importance of earlier fights over the form of popular rule." The Review of Politics, Geoffrey Curtz, "J.S. Maloy's remarkable new book locates an alternative strand of democratic thought in early colonial America.
