adam_text | Long before “the one percent”
became a protest slogan, American
founding father John Adams feared .
the power of a class he called simply
“the few”—the wellborn, the beautiful,
and especially the rich. In Adams
and the Fear of American Oligarchy,
Luke IVIayville presents the first
extended exploration of Adams’s .
preoccupation with a problem that has
a renewed urgency today: the way in
which inequality threatens to corrode
democracy and empower a small elite.
By revisiting Adams’s political -writings,
Maynlle draws out the statesman s
fears about the danger of oligarchy in
America and his unique understanding
of the political power of wealth——a
surprising and largely forgotten theory
that promises to illuminate today’s
debates about inequality and its political
•consequences.
Adams believed that wealth is .
politically powerful in modern societies
not merely because money buys influence,
but also because citizens admire and
even sympathize with the rich. He
thought wealth is powerful in the
same way that beauty is powerful—it .
distinguishes its possessor and prompts
reactions of approval and veneration. .
Citizens vote for——and with——the rich
not because, as is often said, they
hope td be rich one day, but because
they esteem the rich and submit to
their wishes. Mayville explores Adams’s
theory of wealth and power in the context
of his broader concern about social and
economic inequality, and also examines
his ideas about how oligarchy might be
countered.
A compelling work of intellectual
history, John Adams and the Fear o/
American Oligarchy also has important
lessons for today’s world of increasing
inequality.
Luke Mayville is a postdoctoral
fellow at the Center for American
Studies at Columbia University. He is
a contributor to Commonctoeal.
