John Calhoun  

Definición

  • Leading American politician and theorist, John Caldwell Calhoun (1782–1850) served as a South Carolina state representative, U.S. representative, U.S. senator, secretary of war and of state, and vice president of the United States. Calhoun's political writings reflect his responses to the great political problems of nineteenth-century America: the conflict over the Tariff Acts of 1828 and 1832, the slavery crisis, and the concentration of political power in the national government under President Andrew Jackson. [Source: The Encyclopedia of Political Science; Calhoun, John]
