Municipal Ownership Of Quasi-public Works is a historical analysis of the debate surrounding public versus private ownership of essential services in the late 19th century. Based on a presentation to the Washington, D.C. branch of the American Economic Association in 1891, Allen Ripley Foote explores the arguments for and against municipal control of utilities. This work offers insights into the economic and political landscape of the time, reflecting on issues of public finance and policy that continue to resonate today. It is a valuable resource for understanding the historical context of contemporary debates on infrastructure and the role of government in providing essential services.
