German City Government An Efficient Model For Liberty
A detailed essay argues that German cities sustain the most efficient, economical municipal system through home rule, compulsory civic service, and long office tenure. It cites Prussia’s 1872 reforms, citizen deputies on committees, and broad local powers under state oversight, contrasting with American city constraints and urging study of German practice.
