The South Carolina Exposition was a document written in 1828 by Vice President John C. Calhoun, asserting the doctrine of nullification - the belief that states had the right to reject Federal Laws they deemed unconstitutional. It was a response to the Tariff of Abominations, which Southern states felt was unfairly benefiting the North at the expense of the South.
