The Legal Education of a Patriot: Josiah Quincy Jr.\u27s Law Commonplace (1763)
No full textThis article is based on the exciting discovery of a never before printed Law Commonplace, written by the 18th-century lawyer and patriot, Josiah Quincy, Junior. Quincy was co-counsel with Adams in the famous Boston Massacre Trial, a leader of Committee on Correspondence and the Sons of Liberty, and author of the first American law reports. His Law Commonplace provides an exceptional window into the political, racial and gender controversies of the evolving American legal system, and profoundly challenges our conventional views on the origin of American legal education. In certain areas, particularly jury trial, it also has present constitutional significance, as compelling evidence of the state of the law referenced by the Seventh Amendment
La transformación de la visión de John Quincy Adams sobre México
No full textAbstract This paper analyzes John Quincy Adams' changing attitude to Mexico, from being the leading architect of American territorial expansion in the early nationalist period to an ardent defender of Mexico's territorial integrity during the 1830s. The author is also concerned with the following question: What does John Quincy Adams' transformation tell us about the broader relationship between the United States and Mexico? The article shows how, during the 1810s, in seeking to expand the economic self-sufficiency and territorial extent of the United States, Adams had ignored Mexico's civic potential and was eager to acquire Texas and other Mexican territories. Following his defeat in the 1828 elections, he became an opponent of Jacksonian expansion. In resisting the expansion of slavery -and the possibility of the republic becoming a conquering empire- Adams was compelled, despite himself, to defend the integrity of Mexico.Resumen En este artículo se analiza la actitud cambiante frente a México de John Quincy Adams, de ser el primer arquitecto de la expansión territorial de Estados Unidos en la época nacional temprana hasta convertirse en ardiente defensor de la integridad territorial de México en los años treinta. El autor se plantea también la siguiente pregunta: ¿Que nos dice la transformación de John Quincy Adams sobre las relaciones más amplias entre Estados Unidos y México? El trabajo muestra como, durante la segunda década del siglo XIX, en la búsqueda de autosuficiencia y ampliación territorial de Estados Unidos, Adams valoraba poco el potencial cívico de México y estaba ansioso por adquirir Texas y otros territorios mexicanos. Con su derrota en las elecciones de 1828, se convirtió en opositor de la expansión jacksoniana. Al resistir la expansión de la esclavitud -y la posibilidad de que la república se convirtiera en un imperio conquistador- Adams se vio obligado, a pesar suyo, a defender la integridad de México
