Mecklenburg Resolutions and the Declaration Plagiarism Debate

Eugene G. Gay argues that similarities between the Mecklenburg Resolutions and the Declaration of Independence may reflect common Liberty doctrines rather than direct copying. He cites Rousseau, Locke, Buchanan, Knox, and Scottish influence, noting regional factors and the era’s shared political language. He suggests Jefferson’s phrasing could arise independently among thinkers of the time.
