Excerpt from Of What Use Are Common People?: A Study in Democracy
America has recently become painfully aware of her common people. The awareness itself is old, but the unpleasant sensation produced by it is new. In years past the common people of the United States were thought of as the salt of the earth, the backbone of the race, the great body of unselect from whom emergency might on occasion draw the very type of material required for a pressing need. This earlier national awareness of a great body of common people as an integrant part of the population was comfortable, whereas today Americans feel, or are seeking to make themselves feel, that the presence in the body politic of this great element of common people is a matter for deep national concern.

Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the topic of common people and their role within democracy. The author, writing in America in the early 1920s, argues that a disregard for the interests of common people is threatening the very foundation of the country. Examining examples of class conflict, the author suggests that it is through the pooling of interests and the principle of give-and-take that society can approach an ideal of family government and, by extension, a just and equitable democracy. Ultimately, this book provides a thought-provoking lens with which to view the challenges and opportunities presented by the relationship between common people and their governments. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9780259539353_0
