Angus Harwood Brown is a Harper-Schmidt Fellow and Collegiate Assistant Professor in the Department of History at the University of Chicago. His research focuses on the history of political thought, intellectual history, and the Age of Revolutions, with a particular emphasis on democratic revolutions and constitutional frameworks in the 18th and 19th centuries. He is currently working on a book examining constitutional guardianship in the American and French Revolutions and a project on debates about perpetual peace and world governance since the Enlightenment.
His recent publications explore topics such as the role of constitutional oversight in revolutionary contexts, the intellectual origins of Kantian ideas of international federation, and the evolution of Sieyès's political thought. He holds a PhD from the University of Cambridge and has been recognized with the 2024 Charles Schmitt Prize for his work on republican hegemony and perpetual peace theories.
Brown's research integrates legal, political, and intellectual history to analyze how revolutionary actors conceptualized governance, constitutionalism, and transnational political frameworks. His work appears in leading journals such as the Journal of the History of Ideas and American Journal of Legal History.
