Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the power dynamics of political bossism in municipalities, using historical and contemporary examples to illuminate the secret rulers of our cities.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the role and methods of the political boss in the United States. Historically, cities were ruled by princes, nobles, the wealthy, or those who did not rely on wages for support. However, in America, the author argues that every city is ruled by a boss, a person who, though not an official ruler, is the unseen power behind the apparent rulers elected by the people. The author draws parallels between these bosses and the princes and tyrants of the past, showing that, despite differences in outward appearance and conduct, their goals and techniques are often similar. The book offers a nuanced understanding of the boss's methods of rising to power, maintaining control, and securing revenue, utilizing examples from the political landscape of New York City. The author concludes by reflecting on the complex and enduring nature of political power and its implications for modern society.
