Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from University of Illinois Studies in the Social Sciences, Vol. 6 The veto power of the American state governor has long been neglected by students of political science. There are in existence several summaries of constitutional provisions. In a few cases, also, have there been attempts to discuss the historical growth of the governor´s veto power. But these have all concerned themselves with the spread of the veto power among the states, and have not taken up in any satisfactory manner the development and strengthening of that power. The present study is an attempt to investigate not only the development of the veto power in Illinois but also its actual operation. It is hoped that others may do the same for other states. Only then will it be possible to treat the subject generally and in the manner it deserves. I wish to express my indebtedness to Professor W. F. Dodd, now of the University of Chicago, in consultation with whom the subject of this study was determined upon, and who has read the manuscript; to Professor C. W. Alvord, director of the Illinois Historical Survey, for the use of material collected by him; to Mrs. Jessie Palmer Weber of Springfield, Illinois, for the use of the collections of the Illinois State Historical Library; to the Hon. Lewis G. Stevenson, secretary of state, for courtesies and aid extended while searching for material in the state archives. I wish especially to express my appreciation and gratitude to Professor John A. Fairlie of the University of Illinois for the many kind and helpful criticisms made by him during the course of this investigation.
