The Democracy of the Constitution, and other Addresses and Essays

by Henry Cabot Lodge

What does it mean to be a self-governing people? In his book The Democracy of the Constitution, and other Addresses and Essays, Henry Cabot Lodge addresses this fundamental question, exploring the nature of democracy and the role of the Constitution in safeguarding the rights and liberties of the American people. Lodge was a Republican senator from Massachusetts who served in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was a staunch defender of the Constitution and a believer in the importance of limited government. In his essays, Lodge argues that the Constitution is a blueprint for a self-governing people, and that it is essential to uphold its principles in order to preserve the American experiment in democracy.
