PART I: THE UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES OF INDEPENDENCE -- Independence, the United States and the Atlantic Community -- Reorienting Trade: the Origins of Sino-American Trade -- American Merchants in the Post-Revolutionary World -- Debt and Taxes: State Action, the Economy and Individual Behavior -- Illiquidity, Depression and Debt Litigation in Western Massachusetts -- PART II: FROM ILLIQUIDITY TO CONSTITUTIONALISM -- Paper Money: Defining Values, Negotiating Equity -- A Necessary Expedient: Monetary Stability and the Bank of North America -- The Bank of North America, A Dreadful Engine of Oppression -- The Unfinished Revolution A Uniform System of Commercial Intercourse and Regulations.

Jonathan M. Chu examines the economic and constitutional adjustments Americans made after Independence to consider their impact on the debates over the Constitutional Convention. Chu explores individual economic and legal behaviors, connecting them to: adjustments in trade relations with Europe and Asia; the rise in debt litigation in Western Massachusetts; deflation and monetary illiquidity, and the Bank of North America; and reconceiving the functions of the national government and the need for constitutional reform. Stumbling Towards the Constitution will be of interest to historians of the Revolution and Early America specifically, and economic, legal and constitutional historians and historians of the Atlantic world more generally.
