DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Municipal Government in Great Britain In the present volume I have sought to give such an account of the working of municipal institu tions in Great Britain as would supply the infor mation that American readers might find most suggestive and useful for their purposes. A second volume will treat, somewhat similarly, of municipal government in the chief countries of Continental Europe. The British system and its developments, particularly in the great manufacturing and com mercial towns, would seem to be worthy of the practical attention of our ambitious American cities of corresponding rank as regards population and commercial importance.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from The Local Government of the United Kingdom I AM glad to hear that Mr. Clarke is materially enlarging the Scope of his excellent work Outlines of Local Govern ment, so extremely useful to those engaged in the Local Government Service. With an intimate knowledge of the importance of Local Government work, gained from Close upon forty years' experience, I do not hesitate to say that efficient Local Government Administration is of the highest importance to the well-being of our Empire and that efficiency is largely to be obtained by those engaged in it making themselves thoroughly acquainted with the law which appertains to it. Obviously, it must be to the advantage of students to have ready at hand a work, or text-book, upon which reliance can be placed to enable them to gain with ease the knowledge of which it is so absolutely necessary that they should become possessed, in order to qualify themselves for positions in the Local Government Service, whether connected with a Government Department, or with the Municipalities of the United Kingdom.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →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.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Local Government Since the first edition of this book appeared in 1899, several important statutes have been passed which affect Local Government in England and Wales. Chief among these are the London Government Act, 1899, and the Education Act of 1902. It was therefore necessary, in preparing the present edition, to entirely rewrite the chapter on the Education Authority, and to make considerable additions, especially to the chapter on the Metropolis. The rest of the book has been thoroughly revised and brought up to date. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Local Government and Taxation in England and Wales AT a late hour and with much difficulty attention has been directed to the defects and abuses of Local Government and the unfair inci dence and rapid growth of Local Taxation. Even now the public seems hardly to realise the magnitude and dangerous consequences of these evils. Their importance may well excuse the attempt made in this paper to show how fatal would be any protracted neglect in dealing with the question of Local Government, to examine the defects of our present system, and to point out the mischief to which those defects give issue. In the second part of this Paper (366 page I hope to suggest the direction which it appears to me that a scheme for the reconstruction of Local Government should take.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Municipal Government in Continental Europe To some critics it may appear that I have ascribed undue importance to Paris as a type and an influence; yet I can hardly think that anv reader will fail to agree that Paris is the necessary starting-point for a description of the modern regime in Continental cities. In the preceding volume I found it advanta geons to select Glasgow for the more rounded and elaborate study of British municipal life in the con crete. In my own inquiries and observations as an American visitor, I had discovered that to know well the ways and works of the Glasgow municipality was to possess standards of comparison and points of view which afforded the best possible equipment for the further examination of municipal methods and achievements, whether in Edinburgh and Dundee, in Belfast and Dublin, or in Manchester, Birmingham.
