The work, from which they take their com mon origin, was an all-embracing system of proposed Constitutional Law, for the use of all nations professing liberal opinions Volumes, Since this Preface was committed to the press, some change having been made in the list of the Papers originally intended to be inserted hence some uncertainty and mis-statement in the numerical designation of them.

Excerpt from Official Aptitude Maximized; Expense Minimized: As Shewn in the Several Papers Comprised in This Volume

Of this work, a main occupation was, of course, the shewing by what means the several members of the official establishment - in other words, the public functionaries, of the aggregate body of whom, what is called the Government is composed - might be rendered, in the highest degree well qualified, for rendering to the whole community the several services which are or ought to be looked for at their hands: or say, for giving fulfilment to that, which is or ought to be the end of their institution: - namely, the maximization of the happiness of the whole community under consideration.

In any one of these forms of words, may be seen expressed the whole of the benefit in view.

But, in the very nature of the case, connected with this benefit, is a burthen, without which the attainment of this same benefit is, in all places, and at all times, utterly impossible. Of this burthen the principal and most prominent part, being of a pecuniary nature, is designated and presented to view by the word expense.

Hence it is - that, with the object designated by the words Official aptitude, becomes inseparably associated the object designated by the word expense.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book argues that the public can maximize the aptitude of officials while minimizing the expense of maintaining them by adopting a range of practices. The author proposes locating functionaries in various government departments and institutions based on their level of appropriate aptitude. This would be determined by their performance on examinations administered by experts in the field relevant to the position. The author also recommends that officials be paid less than the market rate or even nothing at all, as those who are intrinsically motivated to serve the public will perform better than those motivated by financial incentives. These ideas are discussed in the context of a broader critique of the existing system of government, in which patronage, corruption, and inefficiency are rampant. The author argues that the adoption of the proposed reforms would lead to a more just and equitable society, and improve the overall quality of government.
