缔造共和:美利坚合众国的诞生(1783—1789)
(us)joseph J. Ellis
This is America's overlooked "sub-revolution." In 1776, in order to resist the British and strive for independence, the thirteen states of the United States formed an alliance. The overthrow of the British colonial rulers in 1783 allowed the United States to win precious independence and freedom. However, at this time, it was still difficult for the United States to become a country worthy of the name. After the victory in the War of Independence, deep divisions between states in the country also emerged. Looking at these local powers that were doing their own thing from the perspective of that time, no one was sure whether there would be a country called "the United States" in the future. In the years after independence, the United States gradually lost control in an atmosphere of victory. No country is willing to pay for the foreign debts owed during the war; countries that disagree with the treaties negotiated with foreign countries refuse to implement them. In terms of international reputation, the United States quickly fell from the revolutionary light of mankind to a country with ruined credibility. In addition, there were differences such as western land interests, slavery, pro-French and pro-British differences, etc., Which pushed the United States to the brink of division in the early days of independence. Some optimistic British politicians even waited for the American states to fight in their nests, and then begged to return to the embrace of the British Empire. In this almost hopeless situation, it was indeed a political miracle that the American Revolution could succeed and establish a solid national foundation. The book "Creating the Republic" will spell out the full picture of this miracle for you: the Philadelphia Constitutional Convention in 1787, the "Federalist Papers", Washington, Madison, the father of the U. S. Constitution, Hamilton, the father of finance... These people and events are remembered because they formed the country and national identity of the United States at that critical moment.
