Political Theory
The investigation of Emerson's political philosophy may as well begin with
Miller, Perry, “Emersonian Genius and the American Democracy” in Natures Nation. Cambridge, Mass.: Belknap Press, 1967.
But it should quickly move onto
Shklar, Judith N. “Emerson and the Inhibitions of Democracy.” Political Theory, Vol. 18 No. 4, Nov. 1990 601-614 (Reprinted in Redeeming American Political Thought. Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 1998.)
and most impressivly
Kateb, George. The Inner Ocean: Individualism and Democratic Culture. Ithaca: Cornell University Press, 1992.
