Thoughts Upon Government is a political treatise written by Arthur Helps, an English writer and civil servant, in the mid-19th century. The book is a collection of essays that explore various aspects of government, including its purpose, structure, and relationship to the people it governs. Helps argues that government should be based on the principles of justice and fairness, and that it should exist to serve the needs of the people. He also examines the role of the individual in society, the importance of education and morality, and the need for checks and balances to prevent abuses of power. Throughout the book, Helps emphasizes the importance of reason and practicality in government, and he advocates for a system that is both efficient and humane. Thoughts Upon Government is a thought-provoking work that offers insights into the nature of power and the responsibilities of those who hold it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
