Originally entitled The Kangaroo Court, and not truly a critique of American government, America On Trial is a tour-de-force of political philosophy, containing shocking advances in the theories of separated powers, mixed government, the rule of law, and the scientific underpinnings of justice. Proceeding upon the work of Aristotle, Plato, Locke, Montesquieu and Rousseau, Williams takes the next step in the evolution of political thought, positing such breathtaking theories as the Harmonic Constitution, the cubic separation of powers, Constitutional Dialecticalism, and Fractal Micro-federalism. With one book, Williams has wrought a new era of political thought. Cleverly written as a fictitious court case, the novel begins with Sophocles' character Antigone being prosecuted by the United States, as if her ancient situation had occurred today. Williams thrusts Antigone into American courts to contend with American law. When she loses on appeal to the Supreme Court, she appeals to a mysterious higher court, which hears and dissects her claim that America is unjust. As America fights back, a furious debate of political philosophy ensues, weaving together 2,500 years of history and philosophy. A new political theory is forged, based on the great political doctrines of the classical and enlightenment eras. The histories of England, Rome and Sparta, chaos theory, fractal geometry, Caesar's politics, special relativity, and serial endo-symbiogenesis are all but parts of this integrated new political theory. With this important book, Williams has launched a new era in political philosophy. His Fractal Politics and Harmonic Constitution will set the world on its ear.
