Abstract

This essay develops a new theoretical and empirical understanding of the contemporary crisis of American democracy. Between November 3, 2020, and January 7, 2021, President Donald Trump battled to overturn the results of the American presidential election, launching myriad lawsuits and pressuring hundreds of electoral officials. Confronting this antidemocratic assault was a resilient civil sphere that sustained "office," an institution that, in a democratic society, inspires faith in the Constitution and loyalty to "we the people." After investigating how this civil institution empowered electoral and legal officials to fight off Trumpian pressures, I focus on Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and US Vice President Mike Pence, examining how they emerged as widely admired icons of civil courage. After Trump's defeat, the televised hearings of the January 6th Commission created a "civic ritual" in the midst of which Wyoming Congresswoman Liz Cheney became another icon, symbolizing the renewal of a "civil conservatism." A new, if still precarious, vital center emerged, allowing Democratic prosecutors finally to launch criminal proceedings against Trump. Yet, the Republican Party remains unreconstructed and, for this reason, the future of American democracy is still in doubt. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
