Book Description
Excerpt from Our Despotic Postal Censorship Yet this Postmaster General, upon the ex parte report of such detectives, did by arbitrary order close the mails to Lewis's banking enterprise. Of course that meant death to the enterprise, for mail facilities are vital to every modern business. The pretense was that the business was fraudulent. But this pretense has been killed by the report of the receiver of the assassinated enterprise, who says of it that every loan and investment has been liquidated 100 cents on the dollar with interest in full; that the depositors are being paid in full; and that he has already declared dividends to the stockholders of 85 per cent.

Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 664
Book Description
This new Liberty Fund edition of James McClellan's classic work on the quest for liberty, order, and justice in England and America includes the author's revisions to the original edition published in 1989 by the Center for Judicial Studies. Unlike most textbooks in American Government, Liberty, Order, and Justice seeks to familiarize the student with the basic principles of the Constitution, and to explain their origin, meaning, and purpose. Particular emphasis is placed on federalism and the separation of powers. These features of the book, together with its extensive and unique historical illustrations, make this new edition of Liberty, Order, and Justice especially suitable for introductory classes in American Government and for high school students in advanced placement courses.

Political Censorship of the Arts and the Press in Nineteenth-Century
Author: Robert Justin Goldstein
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1349201286
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
Political Censorship of the Arts and the Press in Nineteenth-Century Europe presents a comprehensive account of the attempts by authorities throughout Europe to stifle the growth of political opposition during the nineteenth-century by censoring newspapers, books, caricatures, plays, operas and film. Appeals for democracy and social reform were especially suspect to the authorities, so in Russia cookbooks which refered to 'free air' in ovens were censored as subversive, while in England in 1829 the censor struck from a play the remark that 'honest men at court don't take up much room'. While nineteenth-century European political censorship blocked the open circulation of much opposition writing and art, it never succeeded entirely in its aim since writers, artists and 'consumers' often evaded the censors by clandestine circulation of forbidden material and by the widely practised skill of 'reading between the lines'.
