Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A True Republic WE have been living under the Constitution of the United States now nearly one hundred years, and in that time we have done a great work. We have cleared a wil derness, filled it with thriving cities and villages, and cover ed it with railroads and mills. We have, in the main, a free and law-abiding people. We have become one Of the great nations of the earth. Many men, too, think that we have a nearly perfect form Of government, that here at last a true Republic has reached a ripe growth. Yet we nearly all agree that the daily working of this government is not what we wish. Men in all parts Of the country say much Of Civil Service Reform. It means one thing - that whatever they may think as to the theory Of our government, it does not in practice give satisfactory results.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Republic The etiquette of American diplomacy is not to be measured by the Old World standard of propriety. The republican simplicity which pretends to see in a court dress a badge of servitude, will possibly find nothing astonishing in the American Minister to a Monarchical Govern ment lecturing the subjects of the Queen on the advantages of Democracy. What would be the American comment were the British Minister at Washington to lecture the citizens of New York on the divine right of kings With what pleasure does Mr. Lowell think the Russian Government would regard the British Ambassador addressing the merchants of Moscow on the priceless blessing of representative institutions?

This book was released on 2017-10-20 with total page 820 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twenty Years of the Republic, 1885-1905 When the new President entered the carriage which was to convey him to his official home, few gave any thought to a gentleman who had stood quietly beside him throughout the simple ceremonial, and who presently took friendly leave Of him with a cordial clasp Of the hand and a word or two Of congratulation and good will. It was the familiar little scene that has been so frequently enacted in our country - when one who, for a few short years, has been the ruler Of a nation and the peer Of monarchs, goes back, at the stroke of the clock, into the Obscurity Of private citizenship, unheeded and unheralded amid the strident din that welcomes his successor. There is always some thing half pathetic in this sudden transformation, yet it is impressive too; for it symbolises American reverence for law. Ex - President Arthur, though unnoticed at the moment when he quietly slipped away from Washington, carried with him into private life the respect and confidence Of all his countrymen, for he had governed well and wisely.

Download or read book The Citizen and the Republic written by James Albert Woodburn and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-09 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Citizen and the Republic: A d104-Book in Government In introducing an educational reform there is always danger of over-emphasis; there is danger that we may not have a good thing without having too much of it. The authors of this volume, while emphasizing community civics and the moral purposes in teaching government, have sought to avoid a one-sided course. They believe that the schools should study the community and such new civics as the changing times call for, and especially that they should give attention to current history and present day problems of democracy; but it is equally important not to neglect certain aspects of the old established order. It may be well to set pupils to the laboratory method of studying the actual life of our city communities, how milk and water are supplied, how food is distributed, how public health is pre served, how the streets are kept clean (or dirty), how the taxes are raised and used, and how the schools are sustained. But to limit a high school course in civics to such a field of study is to commit a great wrong to young people who are under training for citizenship.

The preface to the contents of this pamphlet, much of which had been published before imperialism had been as clearly defined as it now, and by the debates in the last Congress in which so many competent lawyers partici pated, has been prepared at the request of the Democratic State Committee of New York. The Democratic National Convention declared at Kansas City that the burning issue of imperialism, growing out of the Spanish war, involves the very existence of the Republic, and the destruction of our free institutions. We regard it as the paramount issue of the campaign.' Thereafter the issue could not be evaded. The Republican Campaign Text Book, recently issued by the Republican National Committee, has emphasized it as supreme, and attempted its definition.

This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from How Shall Our New Possessions Be Governed? For a long time it was a stigma on the name and pretensions of this republic, - nay, a scandal, that the nation which stood for and proclaimed to the world the very acme of human freedom had a great section of its country governed under the system of chattel slavery, of the most com plete kind. Not until 1865 was there any real consistency in the freedom pretensions of the United States. If we institute monarchy or political despotism, or military rule, over the peoples of these new possessions, then we are countenancing the monarchical principle; then we are adopting the form of government and polit ical methods which the Monroe Doctrine declares it to be a part of our misston and destiny to pre vent from ever entering this hemi sphere.

Download or read book Averroes on Plato s Republic written by Averroes and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2014-08-21 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In one fashion or another, the question with which this introduction begins is a question for every serious reader of Plato's Republic: Of what use is this philosophy to me? Averroes clearly finds that the Republic speaks to his own time and to his own situation.... Perhaps the greatest use he makes of the Republic is to understand better the shari'a itself.... It is fair to say that in deciding to paraphrase the Republic, Averroes is asserting that his world—the world defined and governed by the Koran—can profit from Plato's instruction."—from Ralph Lerner’s IntroductionAn indispensable primary source in medieval political philosophy is presented here in a fully annotated translation of the celebrated discussion of the Republic by the twelfth-century Andalusian Muslim philosopher, Abu'l-Walid Muhammad Ibn Ahmad Ibn Rushd, also know by his his Latinized name, Averroes. This work played a major role in both the transmission and the adaptation of the Platonic tradition in the West. In a closely argued critical introduction, Ralph Lerner addresses several of the most important problems raised by the work.

It is the duty, therefore, for all of us.to study our political history, so that we may become better informed and consequently be more competent to govern ourselves wisely. All who neglect that duty shall be classed with the ignorant, and they will become a by word and reproach among all enlightened men, for an amendment of the Constitution was en acted to give the ignorant the great and glori ous privilege of voting, so that they might become the victims of their own weakness and folly.
