In this highly original study of Confederate ideology and politics, Jeffrey Zvengrowski suggests that Confederate president Jefferson Davis and his supporters saw Bonapartist France as a model for the Confederate States of America. They viewed themselves as struggling not so much for the preservation of slavery but for antebellum Democratic ideals of equality and white supremacy. The faction dominated the Confederate government and deemed Republicans a coalition controlled by pro-British abolitionists championing inequality among whites. Like Napoleon I and Napoleon III, pro-Davis Confederates desired to build an industrial nation-state capable of waging Napoleonic-style warfare with large conscripted armies. States' rights, they believed, should not preclude the national government from exercising power. Anglophile anti-Davis Confederates, in contrast, advocated inequality among whites, favoured radical states' rights, and supported slavery-in-the-abstract theories that were dismissive of white supremacy. Having opposed pro-Davis Democrats before the war, they preferred decentralised guerrilla warfare to Napoleonic campaigns and hoped for support from Britain. The Confederacy, they avowed, would willingly become a de facto British agricultural colony upon achieving independence. Pro-Davis Confederates, wanted the Confederacy to become an ally of France and protector of sympathetic northern states.Zvengrowski traces the origins of the pro-Davis Confederate ideology to Jeffersonian Democrats and their faction of War Hawks, who lost power on the national level in the 1820s but regained it during Davis' term as secretary of war. Davis used this position to cultivate friendly relations with France and later warned northerners that the South would secede if Republicans captured the White House. When Lincoln won the 1860 election, Davis endorsed secession. The ideological heirs of the pro-British faction soon came to loathe Davis for antagonizing Britain and for offering to accept gradual emancipation in exchange for direct assistance from French soldiers in Mexico.Zvengrowski's important new interpretation of Confederate ideology situates the Civil War in a global context of imperial competition. It also shows how anti-Davis ex-Confederates came to dominate the postwar South and obscure the true nature of Confederate ideology. Furthermore, it updates the biographies of familiar characters: John C. Calhoun, who befriended Bonapartist officers; Davis, who was as much a Francophile as his namesake, Thomas Jefferson; and Robert E. Lee, who as West Point's superintendent mentored a grand-nephew of Napoleon I.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'In his highly innovative study of Confederate political theory, Jeffrey Zvengrowski explains the American Civil War in a new way by arguing that Jefferson Davis and the faction of Confederate leaders who supported him saw Bonapartist France as a model for the Confederate States of America. As such, they saw themselves as struggling not so much for slavery directly, but rather for equality among whites and for white supremacy. And they believed that they were fighting a Republican Party coalition that stood for inequality among whites by means of racial equality or racial equality by means of universal equality. This bloc of the Confederate leadership also wanted to build an industrial nation-state capable of waging Napoleonic warfare with large conscripted armies, and they insisted that state's rights did not mean states should inhibit the national government from exercising such delegated powers as building militarily useful infrastructure. They expected to receive support from many northern Democrats and the Bonapartists of Napoleon III's France, each of whom espoused white equality and supremacy even though they both disliked slavery as an institution more than pro-Davis Confederates. Anglophile anti-Davis Confederates, in contrast, advocated inequality among whites, favored radical state's rights inimical to energetic government at any level, and supported theories of slavery that were hostile to white rule without it. Preferring guerilla to Napoleonic warfare, they hoped to receive support from Britain by asserting that southern plantations were akin to romanticized British aristocratic estates; and that the Confederacy would happily become a de facto British agricultural colony'.
