Wisconsin: An Experiment In Democracy (1912) is a book written by Frederic C. Howe that explores the political and social landscape of the state of Wisconsin during the early 20th century. The book provides a detailed account of the political and economic reforms that were implemented in Wisconsin during this time, which were aimed at promoting democracy and social justice.The author examines the role of progressive leaders such as Robert La Follette and their efforts to create a more equitable society through measures such as direct primaries, the regulation of corporations, and the establishment of a public utility commission. The book also looks at the impact of these reforms on the state's economy, including the growth of the manufacturing sector and the emergence of a strong labor movement.Throughout the book, Howe highlights the importance of citizen participation in the democratic process and the need for ongoing reforms to ensure that democracy remains vibrant and responsive to the needs of all citizens. Overall, Wisconsin: An Experiment In Democracy provides a fascinating look at the history of one of America's most progressive states and the efforts of its citizens to create a more just and equitable society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
