Abstract

The recent government shutdown and political gridlock that has gripped Washington DC has led to many calls for Republicans and Democrats to move beyond politics. David Brian Robertson looks back to The Federalist, which he argues offer us lessons in how to break that gridlock. He writes that The Federalist shows us that we need to embrace politics because it is the force that drives government through negotiation and compromise.
