Book excerpt: "The author does not find it necessary to make any apology for the appearance of this little contribution to the history of the Scandinavian settlements in the Northwest. The Bishop Hill Colony will always occupy a prominent place in any history of the State of Illinois. It was founded when Chicago was but an overgrown village, and when there was not a single city worthy of the name in the State. It brought 1100 able-bodied immigrants into the county of Henry when the entre population of the county was only four tims that number. It put large quantities of ready money into circulation at a time when business was largely conducted by barter and when the principal medium of exchange was the skins of fur-bearing animals. It inaugurated that mighty tide of Swedish immigration which has flooded the State of Illinois and the entire Northwest with prosperous Swedish homesteads and flourishing villages. ... Yet, in spite of its importance for the early industries of the State, the Bishop Hill Colony was primarily a religious society. The history of the Jansonists before their emigration belongs to the ecclesiastical history of Sweden. What they sought in the New World was not wealth, but freedom to worship God afther their own manner. They held views which were repugnant to the Church of Sweden. It was the realization of these views which they sought in the New World. Of the character of these views, as well as the result of the experiment, the reader of this historical sketch will be able to judge for himself."--Preface, pages 5-6

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bishop Hill Colony: A Religious Communistic Settlement in Henry County, Illinois The Bishop Hill Colony was incidentally an experiment in practical communism. Perhaps also this Side of its history may not be void of interest or profit in our day, when social improvement is sought largely along similar lines. It is now, indeed, thirty years since the society was dissolved, and cir cumstances have been modified by the advance of civilization and the progress of the industrial revolution. But human nature is substantially the same to-day as in the day of our fathers and grandfathers, and many of the difficulties which the J ansonists encountered must be met again in any attempt to apply the theories of modern socialism to practical life.

Download or read book Turning out the V O T E written by Samuel Valme and published by Samuel Valme, Ph.D.. This book was released on 2023-06-08 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current research has shown that the representative democratic process is in jeopardy due to low voter participation. With contention a brew in the Democratic and Republican parties, and with the challenges that COVID-19 presents, winning elections has become a daunting and challenging task. Candidates, elected officials, running for another term, and their campaigns will need all the resources to give them a winning edge. The electoral process relies on informed and motivated voters to turn out and elect our political leaders, how candidates connect with these voters will determine the likelihood of their political future. This study looks at the influence of political campaigns and community activism groups on voter participation and their role in the overall political health in the democratic process. The study identified several flaws in the political approaches toward influencing voter participation. The research further suggests real-world strategies for the groups to become more effective in fostering practical electoral change, thereby increasing voter participation, and improving their ability to influence the elections in their favor positively.
