| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Unpopular Government in the United States" by Albert M. Kales is a critical political treatise written in the early 20th century. The book examines the concept and implications of unpopular government, suggesting that despite efforts to establish a truly democratic system, power has increasingly fallen into the hands of a few who manipulate the electorate. Kales focuses on the disconnect between the informed few and the politically ignorant majority, shedding light on the mechanisms of power that allow this imbalance to persist. The opening of the book introduces the idea of "unpopular government," defined as governance by a select few, contrary to the will of the majority. Kales reflects on the historical context of American governance, highlighting how mid-19th century structures, which sought to promote popular rule, have evolved into systems that inadvertently disenfranchise voters. He outlines how the increasing political burden on citizens, via frequent elections for numerous offices, has led to widespread political ignorance, for which voters often rely on external advisors. Thus, these so-called politocrats, who guide the ill-informed electorate, effectively become a ruling class, establishing a form of government that operates outside the direct will of the people.
