傑佛遜民主

傑斐遜民主（Jeffersonian democracy）以其倡導者托馬斯·傑斐遜命名，是18世紀90年代至19世紀20年代美國兩大主導政治觀點和運動之一。傑斐遜主義者堅定地致力於美國共和主義，他們反對虛偽的所謂貴族政治，反對腐敗，並堅持美德，優先考慮“自耕農”、“種植園主”和“普通百姓”。他們對商人、銀行家和實業家的貴族精英主義持敵對態度，不信任工廠工人，並強烈反對並警惕威斯敏斯特體系的支持者。
這一術語通常用於傑斐遜創立的民主共和黨，以對抗亞歷山大·漢密爾頓的聯邦黨。在傑斐遜時代初期，只有佛蒙特州和肯塔基州兩個州通過廢除財產資格制度確立了白人男性普選權。但到傑斐遜時代末期，超過半數的州已效仿此舉，包括幾乎所有舊西北地區的州。隨後，各州開始允許白人男性普選總統選舉，並以更現代的方式動員選民。傑斐遜的政黨隨後完全控制了政府機構——從州議會到市政廳，再到白宮。
傑斐遜民主作為民主黨的一個元素一直延續到20世紀初，體現在傑克遜民主的興起和威廉·詹寧斯·布萊恩的三次總統競選中。
