Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Direct Elections and Law-Making by Popular Vote: The Initiative, the Referendum the Recall, Commission Government for Cities Preferential Voting The purpose of this little book is to give to citizens definite information, in concise form, with regard to the various electoral devices now before the country and already established in a number of States, designed to secure direct legislation by popular vote in place of the methods of deliberative representative government. To this end are traced the inception and development of the Initiative and Referendum - Early American types, the Swiss types, and the Modern American type evolved from the Swiss; of the Recall; and of the "Commission" form of municipal government; and exhibits given of these devices in practical operation. A chapter is also devoted to the evolution of systems of Preferential Voting, which have been introduced or proposed in varying forms, in "commission" government schemes. The book does not undertake to present an exhaustive statement of all the facts bearing upon the subject, or minute details of the variants of these devices and methods of their application, embodied in state constitutional amendments, statutes, or municipal charters.
