Excerpt from Municipal Administration in Germany: As Seen in the Government of a Typical Prussian City, Halle A/SIt may fairly enough be taken as a type of the modern, rapidly developing German city of medium size. Its financial, governmental, economic, social, sanitary, and educational prob lems have been those of an Old city, with a style of building, habits of life, and standards of public comfort characteristic Of the eighteenth century, which has suddenly had to face all the embarrassments growing out Of a rapidly increasing population, with an ever more imperative demand for all the modern improvements Of city life.It has had to adjust itself to the new conditions under a form of government which was established in its outlines in the early part Of this century, at the time of the Stein and Hardenberg reforms - somewhat modified about 1830, and again in 1853, but since that time remaining practically unchanged.It would be difficult to find an American City growing from in 1850 to in 1900, which has not changed its form of government a half-dozen times. It will be Of interest, therefore, to examine this scheme of governmental organiza tion, which, adopted for a small city, belonging essentially to the last century, has been found satisfactory for a modern city of the highest type.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
