Essays In Municipal Administration For Europe PDF Download

Excerpt from Essays in Municipal Administration Municipal government is so large and so complicated a subject that when one is asked to speak on the broad general topic, it is no easy matter to decide what aspect to discuss. There are the exciting and dramatic events of municipal politics in particular cities there are the difficult legal problems of municipal organization and the relation of cities to the state government; and there are a long series of special subjects connected with the everyday work of municipal officials. Instead of considering any of these subjects, how ever, I shall attempt here simply to emphasize the general importance of municipal government by a brief sketch of the development of cities and their functions, with some reference to the defects of American municipal management and means of improving the situation.
