  • The Influence of Rotterdam Thinkers Upon New York's 1689 Leislerians Movement

    The Influence of Rotterdam Thinkers Upon New York's 1689 Leislerians Movement

    ROTTERDAM-MANHATTAN CONNECTIONS: THE INFLUENCE OF ROTTERDAM THINKERS UPON NEW YORK'S 1689 LEISLERIANS MOVEMENT DOOR DAVID WILLIAM VOORHEES In 1991 Michiel Wielema published H/<WÖ/ÉTZ tf<z« ^MM, a chronicle of five hundred years of philosophical thought in Rotterdam. He recognized the importance of Rotterdam as a center of early Enlightenment, but did not fully expand upon the influence of the city's intellectual life abroad.' A 1689 uprising in New York, popular- ly known as Leisler's Rebellion, reveals, however, that in the 1680s Rotterdam thinkers played a role in the development of political ideo- logy in the former Dutch West India Company colony. This paper examines the influence of a coterie of Rotterdam theorists that inclu- ded Jacobus Borstius, Pierre Jurieu and Frans Kuyper upon New York's Leislerian movement. A December 1689 dispute over the validity of a customs act high- lights the ideological differences between the factions rending New York in the wake of England's 1688 Glorious Revolution. On Decem- ber 19 a 'plakkaat' appeared in New York City condemning rebel leader Jacob Leisler's resurrection several days earlier of a 1683 New York assembly act for raising government revenues. Citing the Magna Carta and statutes of English kings Edward I, Richard III and Charles I, the authors declared 'that no man thenceforth be Compeld to Make or yield any gift Loan benevolence tax or such Like Charge without Common Consent by act of parliament'.^ The following day Leisler responded with a declaration against the 'false construction on the wholesome Lawes of England not regarding An Act of the ffreemen represented in Assembly', and concluded that the English constitution guarenteed the 'Supreame Legislative Authority under his Maties & ca shall for ever be & reside in a Governor, Councill & the People met in Generall Assembly'.3 At issue was not whether an English sovereign should reign over the 196 province; both sides agreed that one should.

    Alexander Hamilton and the Development of American Law Katherine Elizabeth Brown Amherst, New York Master of Arts in American History, University of Virginia, 2012 Master of Arts in American History, University at Buffalo, 2010 Bachelor of Science in Applied Economics and Management, Cornell University, 2004 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Virginia May, 2015 This dissertation is dedicated to the memory of Matthew and Theresa Mytnik, my Rana and Boppa. i ABSTRACT ―Alexander Hamilton and the Development of American Law,‖ is the first comprehensive, scholarly analysis of Alexander Hamilton‘s influence on American jurisprudence, and it provides a new approach to our understanding of the growth of federal judicial and executive power in the new republic. By exploring Hamilton's policy objectives through the lens of the law, my dissertation argues that Hamilton should be understood and evaluated as a foundational lawmaker in the early republic. He used his preferred legal toolbox, the corpus of the English common law, to make lasting legal arguments about the nature of judicial and executive power in republican governments, the boundaries of national versus state power, and the durability of individual rights. Not only did Hamilton combine American and inherited English principles to accomplish and legitimate his statecraft, but, in doing so, Hamilton had a profound influence on the substance of American law,

    The Journal of the Gilded Age and Progressive Era 14 (2015), 69–76 doi:10.1017/S1537781414000541 Walter Nugent COMMENTS ON WYATT WELLS, “RHETORIC OF THE STANDARDS: THE DEBATE OVER GOLD AND SILVER IN THE 1890S” I. SOME THOUGHTS ON THE WELLS PAPER Wyatt Wells redirects our attention to the “battle of the standards,” the central issue of the 1896 Bryan-McKinley campaign but with roots going back to the Civil War and Recon- struction. He contrasts opposing sides, labeled “goldbugs” and “silverites.” Often these labels identify Republicans on one side, Democrats and Populists on the other. Goldbugs concentrated in the Northeast, silverites in the South and West. Goldbugs included many bankers, merchants (especially in international trade), and bondholders, while silverites were often agrarians—not only farmers but rural businesspeople who shared the farmers’ ups and downs. And agrarians, both in where they lived and what they did, were still the majority of the American people during the decades in question. There were exceptions to all of these categorizations, but in general they identify the groups for which “gold- bugs” and “silverites” are surrogate terms. The consistent policies and laws affecting money—from the Public Credit Act of 1869 to the 1893 repeal of the Sherman Silver Purchase Act—effected “persistent deflation” (p. 1). That benefited goldbugs and disadvantaged silverites.1 Whether “urban workers” (p. 10) would have been harmed by moderate inflation is arguable. It might have raised wages more than consumer prices; wages may lag more than prices but could have caught up. Arguable too is the proposition that keeping the silver standard would have ruined foreign investment.
