Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Municipal Government in Great Britain Any account of living institutions, whether chiefly critical and comparative, or chiefly descriptive and statistical, has always to contend with the difficulty that life means growth and change, and that everything is in motion. This difficulty, quite formidable enough as regards the United States and its social and political organisms, is perhaps even greater in Europe, where innovation and change have in recent years been more marked and bold than in America. When, however, as in the present volume and its successor, the discussion is limited to those particular forms of organization that we may agree to call City Government, - although the word "government" would seem ill adapted to embrace at once the mechanism and the varied tasks of modern municipal corporations, - Europe affords a simpler and more satisfactory field of inquiry than the United States. And the reason may be given in a word. In 110 European country are the principles, purposes, or essential mechanisms of municipal government under serious discussion.
