Excerpt from The Local Government of the United Kingdom I AM glad to hear that Mr. Clarke is materially enlarging the Scope of his excellent work Outlines of Local Govern ment, so extremely useful to those engaged in the Local Government Service. With an intimate knowledge of the importance of Local Government work, gained from Close upon forty years' experience, I do not hesitate to say that efficient Local Government Administration is of the highest importance to the well-being of our Empire and that efficiency is largely to be obtained by those engaged in it making themselves thoroughly acquainted with the law which appertains to it. Obviously, it must be to the advantage of students to have ready at hand a work, or text-book, upon which reliance can be placed to enable them to gain with ease the knowledge of which it is so absolutely necessary that they should become possessed, in order to qualify themselves for positions in the Local Government Service, whether connected with a Government Department, or with the Municipalities of the United Kingdom.

Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.

The book explores the claim that English local government exists in one of the most centralised relationships with national government. Such a position fundamentally undermines any notion of local self-government and makes the term ‘government’ in local government a misnomer. The book will examine how the erosion of the autonomy, powers, roles, functions and responsibilities of English local government came about, the arguments of centralisers and localisers to support their view of the constitutional status of local government, and its overall role in the government of England. The book offers an antidote to the onward march of centralisation by offering a new vision of local government which emphasises both ‘local’ and ‘government’.
