List Of Titles On Municipal Government PDF Download

Excerpt from List of Titles on Municipal Government: With Special Reference to City Charters and to Local Conditions in Chicago; Prepared at the Request of the City Club of Chicago for the Chicago Charter Convention; March 1, 1906 In View of the recent favorable decision of the Supreme Court of Illinois on the charter amendment, and the organization of the Chicago Charter Convention, it is certain that the structure of municipal government will be very seriously considered during the coming year. There is, however, no convenient list of the most important sources of information bearing on these problems now of such great interest. The bibliography here pre sented does not purport to cover all of the books upon municipal govern ment, but includes merely a selected list of such material as particularly bears upon the structure of city government. It includes the charters of all the most important American cities and recent charters of a number of comparatively small cities, the most valuable treatises on municipal gov ernment and a number of special reports or investigations of city prob lems. By no means all of the existing works are cited here, but it is believed that the most important and reliable have been included. It is hoped that this list may be of service to those interested in improving the structure of the local government or governments.
