Summary / Abstract (Note) | THE HISTORY of the US is among the shortest and most paradoxical of national histories, a combination of opposites: progressive slogans about democracy and human rights, on the one hand, and on the other - suppression of and reprisals against those who have had their own ideas about history, freedom, social equality, justice, and democracy. The history of the US is not cloudless: It is dramatic and even tragic at certain periods; in fact, this is very typical of most states. An amazed world watched the birth and development of a state that openly declared its goal to be a democratic society in which the individual would become the main agent of history with inalienable rights and freedoms. This was a revolution intended to open a new path of development to humanity. The Founding Fathers of the young state intended to elaborate constitutional principles and provisions to guarantee democracy and genuine human rights and freedoms. |
