Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book showcases the efforts of the Committee of Forty, formed in response to the unjust creation of a Commission for the Erection of Public Buildings in Philadelphia. The passage of the August 5th, 1870 Act that established this Commission was viewed as a severe violation of the citizenry's rights, a threat to their liberties and autonomy, and a dangerous precedent for future governance. The author delves into the proceedings and challenges faced by the Committee as they worked tirelessly to bring the issue before the Pennsylvania Legislature and Governor. Despite facing resistance and encountering attempts to silence their concerns, the Committee persevered in its mission to restore the city's right to self-governance and fiscal independence. The book astutely analyzes the broader implications of this case, highlighting the fundamental principles of American democracy and the delicate balance between government authority and the will of the people. It underscores the importance of vigilant citizenry, the perils of unchecked power, and the enduring struggle for representative governance. 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. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780265140833_0
