Summary: "Practical Politics" by Alfred F. Robbins is a political treatise written in the late 19th century. The work aims to explore and articulate the principles and aims of contemporary Liberalism, addressing various political questions of practical importance to society during that era. Robbins discusses the significance of voting, government structure, and the responsibilities of citizens, with the objective of fostering a more informed and engaged electorate. The opening of "Practical Politics" begins with a discussion on the importance of every individual's vote and the common misconceptions about its value. Robbins emphasizes that each vote is critical in shaping government and policies, arguing against political indifference. He uses historical examples to illustrate how elections can be decided by a single vote, urging citizens to recognize their influence on government decisions. Overall, the text challenges readers to view political engagement not merely as a duty but as a right that carries significant weight in the democratic process, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of politics and Liberal principles throughout the rest of the book.
