| 520 | _a"Remarks of Mr. Calhoun of South Carolina on the bill to prevent the…" is a historical account written by John C. Calhoun in the early 19th century. This book captures Calhoun's passionate defense of the doctrine of nullification, arguing against federal overreach as it relates to states’ rights and the economic burdens imposed on Southern states. It reflects the intense political climate of the time, particularly the tensions between federal authority and state sovereignty. In this speech delivered in the U.S. Senate on February 15, 1833, Calhoun outlines his opposition to the proposed bill aimed at enforcing federal laws in South Carolina which he views as unconstitutional. He asserts that the state possesses the right to nullify federal laws that are deemed oppressive and unfair. Throughout his arguments, Calhoun articulates a distinction between a union of states and an aggregate of individuals, advocating for a system where state sovereignty is paramount. He draws analogies to the American Revolution to highlight the struggle between liberty and governmental power. The speech serves as a crucial examination of the philosophical underpinnings of federalism and states' rights that would continue to influence American political discourse leading up to the Civil War.
