Description

""History and Analysis of the Commission and City-Manager Plans of Municipal Government in the United States"" is a book written by Tso-Shuen Chang in 1918. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the two most popular forms of municipal government in the United States at the time: the commission plan and the city-manager plan. The commission plan is a form of government in which a small group of elected officials, known as commissioners, hold both legislative and executive powers. The city-manager plan, on the other hand, is a form of government in which an appointed city manager is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the city, while elected officials hold legislative powers.Chang's book provides a detailed history of the development and implementation of these two forms of government in various cities across the United States. He also analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of each plan, and provides recommendations for improving them.The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and evolution of municipal government in the United States, as well as those interested in the practical application of these two forms of government.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
