Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book outlines a plan for effective municipal administration in the United States based on democratic principles. It provides a historical context of city governance in the country and explains how the lack of direct citizen control over local affairs led to inefficient and corrupt city governments. The author proposes a set of constitutional amendments and a Municipal Corporation Act as a solution, designed to empower cities with ample authority to manage their own affairs without external interference while ensuring they are responsible and responsive to their citizens. The book also delves into topics such as the separation of legislative and executive functions, the role of the mayor, and the importance of merit-based appointments in city administration. It emphasizes that the success of this plan hinges on the active participation of citizens in local government through informed decision-making and holding elected officials accountable. By providing a comprehensive analysis of the challenges facing municipal governments and offering practical solutions rooted in democratic principles, this book serves as an invaluable resource for anyone interested in improving the state of city governance in the United States.
