Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the corruption and political machinations that plagued the government of Philadelphia in the late 19th century, particularly the era of "Bossism" that began in the 1850s and reached its peak in the 1880s under the leadership of James McManes. Drawing upon primary sources, the author paints a vivid portrait of a political system in which elections were rigged, the police were complicit in voter intimidation, and city departments were dens of corruption. In this atmosphere of political decay, a group of citizens, including journalists, civic reformers, and even some politicians, began to organize, leading ultimately to the downfall of Bossism and the emergence of a new era of reform in Philadelphia politics. This book makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the history of corruption and reform in American cities. 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 9781331252344_0
