That is how Jefferson saw the election of 1800--and the lessons for today couldn't be more obvious. Most historians celebrate Jefferson's victory over Adams in 1800 as the beginning of the two-party system, but Jefferson would have been horrified by this interpretation. Drawing on the understanding of faction, revolution, and conspiracy reflected in the writings of the Founders, Sisson makes it clear that they, like Jefferson, envisioned essentially a nonparty state. Jefferson believed his election was a peaceful revolution by the American people overturning an elitist faction that was stamping out cherished constitutional rights and trying to transform our young democracy into an authoritarian state. It was a transfer of power back to the people, not a change of parties. Sisson maintains Jefferson would regard our current two-party system as a repudiation of his theory of revolution and his earnest desire that the people as a whole, not any faction or clique, would triumph in government. The ideals of the American Revolution were in danger until this "Revolution of 1800," to which we owe the preservation of many of our key rights. 001389228 530__ $$aAlso issued online. 001389228 648_4 $$aGeschichte 1800. 001389228 648_7 $$a1783-1815$$2fast 001389228 650_0 $$aPolitical science$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 001389228 650_6 $$aScience politique$$0(CaQQLa)201-0070899$$zÉtats-Unis$$0(CaQQLa)201-0407727$$xHistoire.$$0(CaQQLa)201-0070899 001389228 650_7 $$aPolitics and government$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01919741 001389228 650_7 $$aPolitical science.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01069781 001389228 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xPolitics and government$$y1789-1809. 001389228 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xHistory$$y1783-1815. 001389228 651_6 $$aÉtats-Unis$$xPolitique et gouvernement$$y1789-1809.$$0(CaQQLa)201-0077412 001389228 651_6 $$aÉtats-Unis$$xHistoire$$y1783-1815.$$0(CaQQLa)201-0022878 001389228 651_7 $$aUnited States.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01204155 001389228 651_7 $$aUSA$$2gnd$$0(DE-588)4078704-7 001389228 651_7 $$aUnited States$$xPolitics and government$$y1789-1809, Constitutional period.$$2nli 001389228 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001389228 7001_ $$aWheeler, Harvey,$$d1918-2004,$$eintroduction writer. 001389228 852__ $$bgen 001389228 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1389228$$pGLOBAL_SET 001389228 980__ $$aBIB 001389228 980__ $$aBOOK 001389228 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
