""Government Not Founded In Force"" is a book written by Leander Trowbridge Chamberlain and published in 1904. The book explores the idea that government should not be based solely on the use of force, but rather on the consent of the governed. Chamberlain argues that the use of force by the government is often counterproductive and can lead to the oppression of the people. He suggests that a government that is founded on the consent of the people is more likely to be effective and just. The book includes historical examples of governments that have relied on force and those that have relied on consent, and examines the consequences of each approach. Overall, ""Government Not Founded In Force"" is a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between government and its citizens, and the importance of consent in creating a just society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
