Download or read book The New England Town Meeting written by Joseph F. Zimmerman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1999-03-30 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking study, Zimmerman explores the town meeting form of government in all New England states. This comprehensive work relies heavily upon surveys of town officers and citizens, interviews, and mastery of the scattered writing on the subject. Zimmerman finds that the stereotypes of the New England open town meeting advanced by its critics are a serious distortion of reality. He shows that voter superintendence of town affairs has proven to be effective, and there is no empirical evidence that thousands of small towns and cities with elected councils are governed better. Whereas the relatively small voter attendance suggests that interest groups can control town meetings, their influence has been offset effectively by the development of town advisory committees, particularly the finance committee and the planning board, which are effective counterbalances to pressure groups. Zimmerman provides a new conception of town meeting democracy, positing that the meeting is a de facto representative legislative body with two safety valves—open access to all voters and the initiative to add articles to the warrant, and the calling of special meetings to reconsider decisions made at the preceding town meeting. And, as Zimmerman points out, a third safety valve—the protest referendum—can be adopted by a town meeting.

Book excerpt: "When farmer Joel Dunton of Franklin, Massachusetts was killed by a kick from his plow horse on July 1, 1849, he left behind not only a wife and four children, but also a lasting mystery about his origins. Several area newspapers reported the accident, but no obituary was published and no personal information was provided about the victim. Was he an immigrant from Scotland, as some descendants believe? Was he a member of one of the Dunton families who'd resided in New England for generations? Decades of research have yielded no answers but the author has nevertheless managed to document detailed information on four generations of individuals who share ancestry with the mysterious Joel" -- publisher's description.
