The Disillusionment of America's Founders with Professor Dennis C. Rasmussen In-Person

Fears of a Setting Sunset

Celebrate America’s 250th anniversary with author, political scientist, and Syracuse University professor Dennis Rasmussen. Drawing from his book Fears of a Setting Sun: The Disillusionment of America's Founders, Rasmussen will explore how George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson came to worry about the future of the nation they built—and what their fears can teach us about American democracy today.
