Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Congressional Government: A Study in American Politics I have been led by the publication of a French translation of this little volume to read it through very carefully, for the first time since its first appearance. The re-reading has con vinced me that it ought not to go to another impression without a word or two by way of preface with regard to the changes which our singular system of Congressional government has undergone since these pages were written. I must ask those who read them now to re member that they were written during the years 1883 and 1884, and that, inasmuch as they describe a living system, like all other living things subject to constant subtle modifi cations, alike of form and of function, their description of the government of the United States is not as accurate now as I believe it to have been at the time I wrote it.

Book excerpt: The government of the United States is a living system. As such, it is subject to subtle change and modification over time, but still maintains a constancy via its central nervous system-a congressional form of rule. Woodrow Wilson saw congressional government as "Committee" government. It is administered by semi-independent executive agents who obey the dictates of a legislature, though the agents themselves are not of ultimate authority or accountability. Written by Wilson when he was a twenty-eight-year-old graduate student, this is an astounding examination of the American legislative branches, especially in light of the fact that Wilson had not yet even visited Congress at the time of its composition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Congressional Government: A Study in American Politics The object of these essays is not to exhaust criticism of the government of the United States, but only to point out the most characteristic practical features of the federal system. Taking Congress as the central and predominant power of the system, their object is to illustrate everything Congressional. Everybody has seen, and critics without number have said, that our form of national government is singular, possessing a character altogether its own; but there is abundant evidence that very few have seen just wherein it differs most essentially from the other governments of the world. There have been and are other federal systems quite similar, and scarcely any legislative or administrative principle of our Constitution was young even when that Constitution was framed. It is our legislative and administrative machinery which makes our government essentially different from all other great governmental systems.

This book was released on 2019-02-04 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from To the Voters of the Fourth Congressional District They stupidly misjudge the people of Massachusetts, who think that they can marshal her parties, and carry her votes, and at the same time bid her be laggard and neutral while a great work of virtue and patriotism is going on. Her people love thrift. They ought to love it. But they who at home or abroad think to govern her through that impulse, have not read the primer of her history; they have not learned the alphabet of her char acter. There is a high prevailing integrity among her people. Nothing moves them like a great moral principle. At the last fall elections, forty thousand voters, more than a quarter of the whole number, stayed at home. Why did they so? Because there was wanting a sufficiently strong moral. Bond of union in the old organizations. In great part because on the fore most moral and political question of the age, one-of the leading parties was rotten to the core, and the other was not thought sufficiently its opposite.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Public and Republic: Political Representation in America No political problem is more fascinating than that of arranging the representation of the many local and general interests that compose modern society, and none is more frustrating to the scientist and the man of good will. In the village of North Saint Paul, where this preface is written, the active citizens have been continually debating the alternative merits of an elected or of an appointive professional administration of their affairs. The villagers want economy and efficiency in government, but they do not want to lose any of their sense of being represented.

Download or read book Readings on American Federal Government Classic Reprint written by Paul Samuel Reinsch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 924 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Readings on American Federal Government Though the Editor has aimed to steer clear of purely partisan dis eussions, it appeared impossible to exclude everything tinged with a party bias without reducing the collection to a neutral and inane level. It is exactly the personal equation in discussion and argument that lends value when backed by character and experience. In order to feel at home in the actual world of political thought and action, the student should be familiar with the controversial methods that he will encounter at every turn, - he should be trained in distinguishing political fact from political Opinion. However, in most of the important matters dealt with in this collection the principle of party allegiance may be regarded as non - essential. The details of House procedure have been attacked by men of all political faiths. Men of all parties have been united upon the necessity of public control of corporations. As a matter of fact, of recent years, controversies in our legislative bodies have rarely taken on the form of pure party action.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Struggle Between President Johnson and Congress Over Reconstruction The extreme solicitude felt by Congress for the proper preservation of the sovereign privileges of these States is shown by the practical unanimity with which a resolution submitted by Mr. Crittenden, on July 22, was carried, there being only two dissenting voices.x It declared the sense of the House to be that2 this war is not waged upon our part in any spirit of Oppression, nor for any purpose of conquest or subjugation, nor purpose of overthrowing or interfering with the rights or established institutions Of those States, but to Wuon and to preserve the Union with all the di nit e ualit and rights of the several States unim aired' and that as soon as these ob'ects are accom lished the war ou ht to cease. Three days later, Andrew Johnson, then a Senator from Tennessee, submitted the same resolution in the Senate,3 where it was also carried with practical unanimity, although the discussion indicated a confused idea as to its exact sig nificance.

Book excerpt: "Any short list of major analyses of Congress must of necessity include David Mayhew’s Congress: The Electoral Connection." —Fred Greenstein In this second edition to a book that has achieved canonical status, David R. Mayhew argues that the principal motivation of legislators is reelection and that the pursuit of this goal affects the way they behave and the way that they make public policy. In a new foreword for this edition, R. Douglas Arnold discusses why the book revolutionized the study of Congress and how it has stood the test of time.
