Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book highlights the nuances of suffrage as it pertains to city governance in the United States. The author begins by exploring the historical origins of suffrage in both English and American political thought, tracing its evolution from the colonial era to the mid-19th century. The book then examines the practical effects of universal suffrage in cities, arguing that it has led to a decline in the quality of municipal governance and an increase in corruption and waste. The author proposes a number of reforms to address these problems, including limiting the franchise to property owners or taxpayers and implementing systems of minority representation, exploring their historical precedence and potential benefits. Ultimately, this book offers a timely and thought-provoking analysis of the complex relationship between suffrage, democracy, and urban governance.
