The Progressive Movement (Classic Reprint): A Non-Partisan, Comprehensive Discussion of Current Tendencies in American Politics: A Non-Partisan, ... in American Politics (Classic Reprint) - Brossura
Sinossi
Explore the roots and reforms of a pivotal social force.
This non-fiction study examines how the progressive movement emerged from political, social, and economic pressures and how it shaped reforms across the nation, states, and cities. It explains the movement’s three distinct phases and why reformers pushed for new tools to broaden public influence over government. In clear, accessible terms, the book traces the origins of progressive ideas from the formation of early constitutions to modern demands for greater citizen control. It covers key reforms such as direct primaries, the initiative, referendum, and recall, and it explains why municipal and state leaders pursued plans like mothers’ pensions, minimum wage laws, and the city manager system. The voice remains thoughtful and non-partisan, aiming to clarify complex debates without oversimplification.
- How progressives define their movement and the issues that unify reformers across parties.
- The measures proposed to give people more power in nominating candidates and in post-election policy decisions.
- Prominent reforms and their adoption in different regions, with attention to the arguments for and against each.
- Context for understanding why reform ideas gained momentum in the nation, the states, and cities.

The Progressive Movement: A Non-Partisan (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandDa: Forgotten Books, London, Regno Unito
Valutazione del venditore 4 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book traces the development of the Progressive movement in American politics, from its origins in the late 19th century to its reshaping into what the author terms three distinct strands: corporation control, government control, and social/economic relief. The author places the movement's drive for change within the historical US context of post-Civil War industrial expansion, which saw a shift in public perception regarding the role of government and a growing sense that business and industry had gained undue influence. The book examines the ways in which Progressive Era reformers sought to remedy perceived injustices, including government corruption, unfair labor practices, and economic inequality. These reforms would ultimately shape the role of the federal government in American life, laying the groundwork for modern social welfare programs as well as regulations on business and industry.
