Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rise of Democracy Any inquiry into the course of democratic progress in England would be confessedly imsy and superficial which did not endeavour, however brie y, to indicate the nature of the movement in its earlier stages. Is English democracy of home growth, or does it owe its chief impulse to the cognate movement in France? Was it propelled onwards by a conscious striving after new ideals, or was it merely the result of discontent aroused by material discomforts and unjust laws? Did our Radical reformers claim that they were initiating a new era for humanity at large, or were they content with redressing the ills of the time? To these and similar questions it is hoped that this little work will furnish some reply, not, as a rule, explicitly and in set terms, but rather by means of an unbiassed narrative which will leave the reader free to draw his own conclusions as to the drift of events, the full significance of which cannot as yet be fully realized.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Order Changeth: A View of American Democracy Any View of a going concern, like our American democracy, inevitably must be a partial view, be cause it must be a fleeting one. The facts about our democracy to-day Obviously are not the facts of yesterday, nor are they the facts of to-morrow. The democracy in the United States which De Tocqueville saw in the early part of the nineteenth century is not the American democracy rising to power in the twentieth century. Perhaps, indeed, we did not have a democracy at all during the early decades of the nineteenth century. Certainly that democracy passed into the more typical republican form of government during the middle and latter decades of the century. And it seems likely that we are about to revert (or progress, if you would choose that verb) from the republican form under which our.

This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rise and Progress of Democracy I have already called attention to the formation of trade-unions in England in the early part of the nine teenth century. After they had won legal recognition and were no longer persecuted they gave their chief at tention to effecting wage-agreements with their employers and to putting through legislation reducing the hours of labor, protecting the women and children, introduc ing safety devices and SO forth - a mass of Often in finitesimal, but in their bulk, very appreciable, ameliora tions in the lot of the wage - earner, servant and slave of the machine. In England the course of labor has con tinued down to our own day to travel this slow upward path characterized by concessions and compromise, though of late years the continued fair-weather prospect has been troubled by the more radical agitation imported from the continent. To this I shall now invite the reader's atten tion. I have already spoken of St. Simon and Louis Blanc and the rise of a socialist doctrine in France. Its gist was the abolition of private property and the nation alization of the means of production and although it did not call itself socialism at first, the name of socialism he came attached to it and has remained attached to all simi lar philosophies to the present day.

However, he did not wait until Father had gotten into the stall, but jumped upon him before he was hardly inside the door.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Democracy and Social Growth in America: Four Lectures Through the discovery of America and its subsequent occupation by Europeans, large scope was given to a modified form of political practice and the new phenomena of political life have given a new basis for scientific inductions. The idea of equality under the law, which we recognize as one of the results of the new social conditions, has entered as a conspicuous feature into recent political discussion.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Democracy, Vol. 1 of 2: In America Inpresenting the translation of this work to the public, preceded by an Introduction in which the author calls the attention of the reader to the present social state of France, I may perhaps be allowed to say a few words on the inferences which are to be drawn from the democratic in stitutions of America relative to our own political condition. We live at a time when so many of the maxims of government are worn out, that in casting our eyes upon the aphorisms of the great statesmen of Europe, we are astonished to find that the authority they attempted to defend is vanished, and the principles by which they de fended it are no more.

Download or read book Three Centuries of American Democracy (Classic Reprint) written by William Macdonald and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Centuries of American Democracy I have had particularly in mind, in writing this book, the very large number of persons who want to know the main facts and the formative influences in the growth of the United States as a democratic nation, but who nevertheless have no time to read elaborate narratives or to study a series of books on special periods or topics. I hope, however, that the book may also prove useful to students and teachers as a summary narrative around which the details of lectures or comprehensive reading can be grouped. The references to authorities are intended, like the text, primarily for the general reader who may wish to pursue the subject further in books that are most worth while. So many elaborate bibliographies of American history are now available that anyone who desires to follow any particular topic to its limits can easily find guidance, while the systematic student will naturally enlarge his bibliography according to his needs or the library resources at his command.

Book Synopsis The Decline and Rise of Democracy by : David Stasavage
Download or read book The Decline and Rise of Democracy written by David Stasavage and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-08-24 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Historical accounts of democracy's rise tend to focus on ancient Greece and pre-Renaissance Europe. The Decline and Rise of Democracy draws from global evidence to show that the story is much richer--democratic practices were present in many places, at many other times, from the Americas before European conquest, to ancient Mesopotamia, to precolonial Africa. Delving into the prevalence of early democracy throughout the world, David Stasavage makes the case that understanding how and where these democracies flourished--and when and why they declined--can provide crucial information not just about the history of governance, but also about the ways modern democracies work and where they could manifest in the future."--

People have studied the outside of the body of democracy; they have hardly begun to know what makes its life, or upon what its good health depends. Democracy is on trial in the world, on a more colossal scale than ever before. Its friends per haps never faced more difficult problems. Neither have they ever had so much reason to hope for success.

Book Synopsis The Birth of the New Party Or Progressive Democracy (Classic Reprint) by : George Henry Payne
Download or read book The Birth of the New Party Or Progressive Democracy (Classic Reprint) written by George Henry Payne and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birth of the New Party or Progressive Democracy It has been said that misgovernment in the United States is an incident in the history of commerce. But this is true, not only in the United States but of all government. It is inevitable that after every period of material prosperity there should be a period of accounting and recapitulation in which the people are forced to recover those rights that in the time of general jubilation have been purloined from them. It is no jest that in the times of excitement, certain brainy and unscrupulous men will find themselves in the position of the nimble gentleman who boasted that he would take all the prizes at the county fair. He did; but fortunately the policeman made him put them all back before he got outside the gate. At the beginning of the Victorian Age there was an Attorney General of England, afterwards Lord Chief Justice Campbell, who rose at a public banquet in Edinburgh and with his comfortable dinner warming his imagination, his face beaming in response to the flattering reception, declared that the Chartist movement had passed entirely away. Lord Campbell was the Wickersham of his day. The fatuous blunderer of our own day was no further away from the truth in his Chicago speech than was Lord Campbell in his Edinburgh effort. Within ten days the war for what was called the People's Charter was at its height - and it lasted for ten years.
