Download or read book Government in the United States written by James Wilford Garner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Government in the United States: National, State, and Local Merits of Local self-government. - In the United States, local self-government is regarded as one of the chief merits of our political system, and is often declared to be one of the inalienable rights of the people. One great advantage of local self-government is that it brings government near the door of every citizen, and permits the people of each locality, who are most familiar with their own local condi tions and who know best what are their local needs, to regu late their own affairs as they see fit. Also, such a system is well calculated to secure responsibility. So long as the local authorities are chosen by the community from its own inhabitants and are constantly under the eyes of the people, they can be more effectively controlled and made amenable to local public opinion than is possible where they are chosen by authorities distantly removed. An other irnportant advantage of local self-government is that it serves as a training school for the political education of the citizens. Allow them the privilege of choosing their own local officials and of regulating their own local concerns, and their interest in public affairs will be stimulated and their political intelligence increased and broadened. This not only will tend to secure more responsible government (local, state, and national), but will produce a moreoactive type of citizenship.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Constitutional Government in the United States MY object in the following lectures-is to examine the government of the United States as a constitutional system as Simply and directly as possible, with an eye to practice, not to theory. And yet at the very outset it is necessary to pause upon a theory. The government of the United States cannot be intelligently discussed as a constitutional system until we clearly determine what we mean by a constitutional government; and the answer to that question is in effect a theory of politics.

This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The A B C of the Government of the United States The citizen of the United States in his 'daily life comes in contact with at least three and sometimes with five distinct divisions of government. If he lives in the South, he will be controlled by the Federal, State and County governments; if he lives in Greater New York, he will be under the Federal, State, County, City and Borough supervision. All of these govern ments exist on the same area but distinct from each other and without communication or conference; each has its own powers, finances and officers. Within its own sphere, each is supreme. Common to all government is a system of checks and balances in order that no individual or group of individuals may gain autocratic power. The extent of each zone or circle of government and its activities are sketched in the chapters which follow.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to the Study of Federal GovernmentOne of the most striking political tendencies of the last century has been the development of federal government both in Europe and America. Within a hundred years the Swiss confederation has grown compact and strong, the German confederation has been remodelled, and tendencies toward an Imperial federal sys tem are seen in England. Ou this side of the Atlantic, the Spanish American States have formed several confederations, of which two - Mexico and the Argentine Republic seem durable; and the British continental possessions have been amalgamated into an union. Above all, the United States of America has borne the strain of growth of territory and population, and is to-day the strongest and most firmly established of all federal governments that have ever existed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 922 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.

This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Constitution of the United States The story of the Constitution is of truth stranger than fie tion. It is natural to attribute to an institution throughout its history that reputation which it bears in our own day. Many men are yet living who remember with startling dis tinctness a time when the Constitution seemed merely a piece of parchment; when the fate of the nation was as uncertain as the course of battle; when stern necessity compelled so liberal an interpretation of the supreme law of the land that states men refrained from forming conclusions on the tendency Of national administration, and, looking hopefully forward, sought new meanings in events where before they had sought interpretation by a construction Of words. Then, and not till then, in our history was the Constitution of the United States understood in its spirit as being the expression of the nation's mind, Whatever that mind might be. But no man now living can remember the angry days when the Constitu tion was yet a hope or a proposition debated between jealous States and still more jealous political leaders. NO one can re member the living opinions which, at the close of the eight eenth century, so nearly triumphed, and whose triumph would have dissolved a feeble union of States and encouraged the horrors of an anarchy only possible in a democracy. When the Opinions on national government in America to-day and opinions Of a century ago are contrasted, it is difficult to be lieve that we are the children of our fathers.

Though women are participators in the foundation of society, and though they are as numerous as the men, they have been in a great measure excluded from social rights, and in almost all states from civil govern ment. Aristotle' says, Barbarians make no distinc tion between women and Slaves; but he also says, and I suppose it agrees with his notions of propriety, that a husband rules his wife in a political manner Women in Greece, though far advanced beyond a state of slavery, possessed by no means a liberal situ ation.

Download or read book The Civil Government of the United States Revised Classic Reprint written by Asahel Norton Fitch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Civil Government of the United States (Revised) A new educational work Should, in itself, plainly indicate the excuse for its existence. Especially is this true of a text-book upon Civil Government, Since the subject has been already so well treated in the various works now in daily use. Probably no one at this time doubts the propriety of giving the study of Civil Govern ment a prominent place in our schools. Some of the pupils in the school rooms to-day will, in a few years, be occupying public positions of responsibility and power; and while these may be comparatively few in number, yet in this country every citizen has political duties to perform, and should therefore be familiar with the plan and workings of the government which imposes them. Hence it remains only a question as to the manner in which the subject may be most effectively presented for the purposes of instruction. Those who, as teachers, have heard their classes in Civil Government complain that the subject was dry and uninteresting, need only consult their own recollections to know the justice of such complaints. It certainly is not possible to invest the subject with the charms of romance, or give it the thrilling interest of a History of the Crusades or the Conquest of Mexico. But it has seemed possible for a text-book upon Civil Government to be made so readable that it will invite and hold the attention of the pupil, instead of being the passive object of compulsory study. To accomplish this has been the aim in the preparation of this work. The plan is foreshadowed in the frontispiece. Our government, being representative, the popular will controls, through these channels of representation, -the intermediate political subdivisions, and finally asserts itself in the power of the Federal Government. It seems, therefore, that the study of this subject in its natural order Should commence with the township, and follow the principle of representation to its widest application. This method has been pursued. It is impossible, within the limits of a work of this kind, to enter into the details of all the peculiarities arising under the constitutions and laws of the different States, although much attention is given to those branches of the subject. It is presumed, however, in all cases, that the teacher will be familiar with the organization and government of his own State and its subdivisions, and these should be considered in connection with the text, the resemblances noted, and the differences particularly pointed out. The lesson reviews have been made to indicate that method of instruction. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
