    THE FREE MAN AND FREE GOVERNMENT IN POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY by Ellis Sandoz Louisiana State University Copyright © Ellis Sandoz 2008. All rights reserved. (Rev. 5) The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath. Mark 2:27 Liberal modern constitutionalism on the Anglo-American pattern posits free men as citizens and free governments resting on consent of the governed. This magnification of the individual human person in his political capacity is both commonplace and unique– commonplace to our thinking and unique in world experience. My purpose here is briefly to explore the depth of meaning inherent in these political symbols and its theoretical grounding. To that end I shall consider the anthropology of liberty and something of its institutional manifestations. This will involve a certain amount of archeology but my intention is to recall intimations of the living truth of our core convictions and their infrastructure as they coalesced in the Founding and discern some hints as to their meanings. At the center of it all, viewed from philosophy and from revelation, stands the individual person living in the presence of divine Reality. How is this to be understood? 1. A constitutional preamble. To begin in the middle–i.e. with the political and constitutional layer of metaxic reality– there is the liber homo of Magna Carta, a primary beneficiary of some of the key provisions of that most celebrated constitutional 1 document. Most famously there is cap. 29: No Free-man [Nullus liber homo] shall be taken, or imprisoned, or dispossessed,

Dr. Sandoz, who introduced me to Eric Voegelin's work, deserves special commendation for his tireless-work in promoting Voegelin's thought. His dedication in this endeavor has made my work in the following pages much easier than it might have been otherwise. I would be remiss if I did not include among my benefactors at LSU Professor Harry Mokeba who was instrumental in showing me the importance of comparative political study. In this vein I should add Dr. Sankaran Krishna who has continued to foster my interest in comparative political analysis during my graduate studies in Hawai'i. I extend my utmost gratitude to my committee, which included Professors Manfred Henningsen, James Dator and Louis Herman.

Voegelin and Rosenstock-Huessy 2 Introduction1 Eric Voegelin’s star has continued to rise since his death in 1985. But while there has been a steadily growing body of works on his thought, very little of that work has been critical. In this paper, I want to present a critique of Voegelin from the perspective of another great, and largely unknown, polymath and (unorthodox) Christian thinker, Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy (1888-1973). Voegelin represented himself as a Christian Platonist and political scientist whose main preoccupation was the symbols of order and disorder throughout history. In Voegelin’s approach to politics, revolutions are the product of existential hubris. They are the blastings, derangements and deformities of humanity. His writings on politics are a warning against the dangers of revolution as well as a diagnosis of the states of mind which create the explosive outbursts of revolution.

RIVAL TRADITIONS OF LIBERTY: AMERICA VS. THE EUROPEAN UNION Steven Alan SAMSON* THE CONSTITUTION OF LIMITATIONS A study of the Declaration of Independence and the other American founding documents should lead us to reflect upon something remarkable: Whence came this idea of unalienable rights? It cannot be found in the statute books and yet it runs as a thread through the history of western law generally and English law specifically - from St. Patrick to King Alfred to Magna Carta and the Petition of Right. The Founders cited the “Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God” as the justification for dissolving the political bands that had, until that moment, connected them to the English Crown. Two years before the Declaration of Independence, George Washington chaired a meeting on July 18, 1774 that produced the Fairfax County Resolves, which articulated these principles and bore witness to the long chain of English liberty.
