Excerpt from The Government of the New England States All agree that in a republic like ours there is urgent need that every citizen know something of the government under which he lives, something of its functions, of its history, of the principles underlying it, and, particularly, of his personal relation to it. There is also universal agreement that this study of government and this training for citizenship should form one of the important branches of study in our elementary schools. This is evidenced by the trend of the discussions heard at educational meetings and among citizens generally throughout the country, by the appointment of committees by educational societies to consider courses and methods in the subject, by the organization of civic leagues for the express purpose of promoting civic instruction in our schools, and by the appearance of many elementary text-books designed for use in the grammar schools. Most of these text-books have attempted to cover the United States, and, therefore, in the treatment of all except the federal government, have been obliged to limit themselves to generalities. Those which have dealt with the government of a single State have proved unsatisfactory because of their tendency to leave the pupil with a narrow and imperfect view of his own local and State government.

Local government in the New England states has historically been regarded as a style of government that most closely embodies the spirit of American democracy. Although models of local government vary from one town to the next, the common thread which unites all New England towns is that the people are empowered to choose their own form of government, and in doing so control their own destiny. In this fresh and insightful book, Professor Gary L. Rose, a well known commentator on American politics and native New Englander, introduces readers to local government in Connecticut. Rose takes readers on a journey showcasing the origin of Connecticut towns, the different models of government in existence among the state's 169 communities, the means by which towns and cities finance public services, the status of party politics in urban, suburban, and rural communities, the creative endeavors currently underway at the local level of government, and the serious challenges facing local media with respect to performing their "watchdog" role over the affairs of local decision makers. Intended for students, political practitioners, and a general audience, Professor Rose's book not only fills a void in the literature on local government, but will also serve to inspire those who want to make a positive difference in the political life of their local communities.

In this groundbreaking study, Zimmerman explores the town meeting form of government in all New England states. This comprehensive work relies heavily upon surveys of town officers and citizens, interviews, and mastery of the scattered writing on the subject. Zimmerman finds that the stereotypes of the New England open town meeting advanced by its critics are a serious distortion of reality. He shows that voter superintendence of town affairs has proven to be effective, and there is no empirical evidence that thousands of small towns and cities with elected councils are governed better. Whereas the relatively small voter attendance suggests that interest groups can control town meetings, their influence has been offset effectively by the development of town advisory committees, particularly the finance committee and the planning board, which are effective counterbalances to pressure groups. Zimmerman provides a new conception of town meeting democracy, positing that the meeting is a de facto representative legislative body with two safety valves—open access to all voters and the initiative to add articles to the warrant, and the calling of special meetings to reconsider decisions made at the preceding town meeting. And, as Zimmerman points out, a third safety valve—the protest referendum—can be adopted by a town meeting.
