Synopsis
Excerpt from Official Aptitude Maximized; Expense Minimized: As Shewn in the Several Papers Comprised in This Volume
The work, from which they take their com mon origin, was an all-embracing system of proposed Constitutional Law, for the use of all nations professing liberal opinions Volumes, Since this Preface was committed to the press, some change having been made in the list of the Papers originally intended to be inserted hence some uncertainty and mis-statement in the numerical designation of them. But, as by reference to the list of contents, things may be set right, the benefit of correction would not (it has been thought) pay for the trouble.

Official Aptitude Maximized; Expense Minimized (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book argues that the public can maximize the aptitude of officials while minimizing the expense of maintaining them by adopting a range of practices. The author proposes locating functionaries in various government departments and institutions based on their level of appropriate aptitude. This would be determined by their performance on examinations administered by experts in the field relevant to the position. The author also recommends that officials be paid less than the market rate or even nothing at all, as those who are intrinsically motivated to serve the public will perform better than those motivated by financial incentives. These ideas are discussed in the context of a broader critique of the existing system of government, in which patronage, corruption, and inefficiency are rampant. The author argues that the adoption of the proposed reforms would lead to a more just and equitable society, and improve the overall quality of government. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332171316_0
