Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal Government Ihe city. We find in all cotintries large aggregations of persons in small areas which are variously called cities or urban communities. The mere existence of such aggregations presents peculiar phenomena. We ask the questions: How did these aggregations come about? and, How are they constituted! that is, What are the characteristics of urban populations! These questions are of a sociological nature. When we speak of the city or urban community as a mere aggregation of persons we are therefore using the term in a sociological sense. But the presence of these aggregations causes problems to arise which are not sociological in character. For these aggregations must have a governmental organization. Not only must they have such an organization but their problems being peculiar, owing to the density of their population, that organization must be different from that which is accorded to rural communities. When, therefore, we speak of a city or urban community as a governmental organization we are using the term in a political rather than a sociological sense. We are not ttiiTiTriiig 80 much of the reasons why aggregations of persons exist or of the character of their xopulation as of the position which the city occupies as an organ of government and of the political powers which it exercises. It has been said that the political problems of cities are peeoliar. This is due to the character of urban populations.1 Authorities: Veber, The Growth of Cities etc.; Hobson, The Evolntion of Capitalism; Qiddings, Hie Principles of Sociology.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from State and Municipal Government in the United States In spite of the importance and interest of international and national questions of policy and in spite of the rapidly widening sphere of federal legislation and administration the life of an American citizen is affected more often by the agencies of local government than by those of the national government. Under the protection of the Federal Constitution the life and property of the citizen are governed and protected by state, not federal, laws. In his political capacity the citizen takes part in both the federal and the local government in accordance with state regulations. Acting under the state laws are the particular political units in which the citizen may reside - the county, city, or town. To the authorities of these the citizen most fre quently looks for governmental support and regulation. Yet these local bodies are distinctly subordinate to and created by the authority of the state and are supervised and regulated by it. It is the purpose of this book to discuss the organization, the distribution of powers and functions, and the operation of these agencies of local government. Other books have dealt with state government and state administration or with munici pal government and municipal administration, but this book covers both state and municipal government, treating the two as a single manifestation of local government. With this in mind the book has been divided into five parts. In Part I the federal system and the state constitutions as the fundamental basis of local government are discussed. Part II deals with the political system - the electorate in theory and in action, in primaries, in election campaigns, and in its direct action in the use of the initiative, referendum, and recall. Part III deals with state government - the different organs and the functions which these organs perform. State administration, which is rapidly being extended both directly and through the supervisory power of the state, is discussed in its various manifestations.

More than forty-five thousand officials and employees are engaged in carrying on the work of government in the city, at an annual cost of one hundred and ten millions of dollars. This enormous working force is employed almost entirely under civil service laws. The division of duties among the members is defined by the charter of the greater city and by numerous laws, ordinances and regulations, either enacted by the Board of Aldermen or the State Legislature, or prescribed by the heads of the various departments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Government of Municipalities The main topics treated in this volume and the reasons for the order of their presentation are so fully explained in the introductory chapter that few words are needed here. The lack of any generally accepted municipal system in the United States and the contrariety of opinion concerning the most important methods of municipal government are recognized facts, and - they must largely affect the treatment of our subject. Conflicts of opinion and serious disputes about theories and methods would be unavoidable even if nothing further should be attempted than a plan of city government formed by compilation and deductions from American precedents and experience alone. I must think that such a treatment of the matters we are to deal with would be quite inadequate; for very instructive lessons in municipal government can be best studied in the practical methods, and the results of administration in the leading cities of Europe, where municipal experience has been much longer and more varied than in the United States. Nevertheless, our municipal system must be framed in harmony with our constitutional principles and social life; so that, while nothing intrinsically good should be rejected merely because of its foreign origin, nothing can be adopted unless compatible with the fundamental theories of republican government.

This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Bibliography of Municipal Government in the United States A Bibliography of municipal government has been much needed for a long time by teachers, librarians and city officials. It is now nearly fifteen years since Professor Robert C. Brooks issued the second edition of his Bibliography of Municipal Affairs and City Conditions - a most useful handbook in its day. In the interval, however, there has been a prodigious output of publications relating to this general field. No one can hope to keep pace with it all. To attempt a complete catalogue would be a waste of time and printer's ink, since much of the material, most of it in fact, has only a transitory or local interest. The aim of the present editor has been to make, from the entire mass, a selection of those materials which seemed to be most likely to prove of service both to the general reader and to the special student of municipal affairs. For this reason the volume includes references of a widely differing character - some quite elementary and others semi-technical. It may appear incongruous to put such things side by side, but each has its own constituency. The field of municipal by side, but each has its own constituency. The field of municipal government has been approached from a broad viewpoint and regarded as including every important phase of local activity whether political, administrative, social or economic. In determining what ought to be included and what left out, certain definite but not inflexible rules have been kept in mind. It may be well to indicate them here, for they embody principles upon which most men interested in bibliographical apparatus would probably agree; they also explain many things in this volume which might otherwise be taken as indications of editorial predilection or caprice, and may thus serve to forestall some fastidious criticism.

Government of 1716 City ocw York was written for the purpose of enabling the pupils of the schools to know their own city. The introductory chapters give in story form the purchase of Manhattan Island and its growth under the Dutch and English governments. They also give the history of the city immediately following the Revolution. The chapters take up each administrative depart ment of the city government from its very beginning and tell, in detail, of its development and the manner in which it is managed at the present time. In order to bring the book up to date each department of the municipal government was most carefully studied under the immediate and helpful supervision of the Commissioner or some one delegated by him. After each chapter was written it was read critically by an official of the department treated. For this reason it can be stated without hesitation that the book is accurately brought up to date. As can readily be seen the authors are under the greatest obligation to the heads of the administrative departments and others connected with the municipal government, who gave such generous help and kindly advice while the book was being revised.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from City Government by Commission For seventeen years the National Municipal Leagie has been the open forum for the discussion of municipal problems. In that time a great mass of valuable papers, documents, and discussions has been accumulated. An increasing quantity of this material, however, is almost inaccessible to new readers, members and investigators, because the editions of the various Proceedings are about exhausted. How shall this material, which has proved so helpful in the past, be made available for the growing numbers of students of municipal affairs? To this question the Business Committee of the League has given its attention, with the result that arrangements have been made with the house of D.Appleton and Company, New York, to publish at popular prices a National Municipal League Series, to be made up of volumes, each dealing with a special phase of the municipal problem. Each one will contain the principal and most timely papers presented to the League dealing with the subject, together with such additional matter as may be necessary to bring the volume up to date and to make it a complete and comprehensive discussion.

It contains a wide range of essays that define the important questions in the field, evaluate where we are in answering them, and set the direction and terms of discourse for future work. The Handbook will have a substantial influence in defining the field for years to come. The chapters critically assess both the key works of state and local politics literature and the ways in which the sub-field has developed. It covers the main areas of study in subnational politics by exploring the central contributions to the comparative study of institutions, behavior, and policy in the American context. Each chapter outlines an agenda for future research.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal Life and Government in Germany The completion of this book realises a long-cherished wish and intention the fulfilment of which, owing to many reasons, has repeatedly been deferred. In various writings on German life and institutions, now covering a period of just twenty-five years, I have touched upon isolated aspects of the subject of municipal government. Now, for the first time, I have the satisfaction of dealing with the subject systematically, and so of giving to it, as I trust, a treatment worthier of its importance. The actual work of writing has been spread over four years. The book, as its title explains, is concerned solely with questions of urban administration, yet without the limitation which the use of the word "municipal" might seem to suggest. The larger German cities and towns correspond for all practical purposes to the municipalities of the United Kingdom, as the smaller German towns correspond to our urban districts; hence it has appeared to me justifiable to consider convenience rather than strict historical and technical accuracy in the use of the terms "municipality" and "municipal," and to follow common wont in applying these terms to urban organisations, institutions, and activities generally, irrespective of the question of incorporation as understood in this country. On the subject of sources, a special remark needs to be made. This is not a book written from books, though German literature has, of course, been freely used.
