Plan Of Parliamentary Reform, In The Form Of A Catechism - Jeremy Bentham - Bog

""Plan of Parliamentary Reform, in the Form of a Catechism: With Reasons for Each Article, with an Introduction"" is a political treatise written by Jeremy Bentham in 1817. The book is structured as a series of questions and answers, in the form of a catechism, that outline Bentham's proposals for reforming the British parliamentary system. The book is divided into two parts: the first part outlines the current flaws in the parliamentary system and the second part proposes specific reforms to address these issues. Bentham argues that the current system is corrupt and inefficient, and that it fails to adequately represent the interests of the people. Bentham's proposed reforms include the introduction of a secret ballot, the elimination of rotten boroughs (electoral districts with very few voters), the expansion of the franchise to include more people, and the creation of a more representative and accountable parliament. Throughout the book, Bentham provides detailed justifications for each of his proposals, drawing on his utilitarian philosophy and his belief in the importance of individual rights and liberties. The book is considered a seminal work in the history of political thought and has had a significant impact on subsequent debates about parliamentary reform and democratic governance.Showing The Necessity Of Racial And The Inadequacy Of Moderate Reform.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
