Republicanism in the United States
Republicanism is the guiding political philosophy of the United States. It has been a major part of American civic thought since its founding. It stresses liberty and ""unalienable"" rights as central values, makes the people as a whole sovereign, rejects aristocracy and inherited political power, expects citizens to be independent in their performance of civic duties, and vilifies corruption. American republicanism was founded and first practiced by the Founding Fathers in the 18th century. For them, according to one team of historians, ""republicanism represented more than a particular form of government. It was a way of life, a core ideology, an uncompromising commitment to liberty, and a total rejection of aristocracy.""Republicanism was based on Ancient Greco-Roman, Renaissance, and English models and ideas. It formed the basis for the American Revolution and the consequent Declaration of Independence (1776) and the Constitution (1787), as well as the Gettysburg Address (1863).Republicanism may be distinguished from other forms of democracy as it asserts that people have unalienable rights that cannot be voted away by a majority of voters. Alexis de Tocqueville warned about the ""tyranny of the majority"" in a democracy, and advocates of the rights of minorities have warned that the courts needed to protect those rights by reversing efforts by voters to terminate the rights of an unpopular minority.The term ""republicanism"" is derived from the term ""republic"", but the two words have different meanings. A ""republic"" is a form of government (one without a hereditary ruling class); ""republicanism"" refers to the values of the citizens in a republic.Two major parties were explicitly named after the idea—the Republican party of Thomas Jefferson (founded in 1793, and often called the ""Democratic-Republican Party""), and the current Republican party, founded in 1854.
