=================== HES POSTING =====================
[NOTE: This was posted on H-SHGAPE, but I thought that perhaps someone on
HES could provide additional help. Please address replies directly to
Georg Leidenberger. -- RBE]
From: Georg Leidenberger <[log in to unmask]
I wrote my dissertation on the politics of transportation in Chicago at
the turn of the century with a focus on the city's municipal ownership
movement. Wanting to place this study into a nation-wide framework, I
would like to ask for suggestions on any LITERATURE ON STATE-LEVEL PUBLIC
UTILITY REGULATION. In particular, I am interested in efforts to create
uniform legislation for the states. James Weinstein in _Corporate
Liberalism_ discusses efforts of the National Civic Federation to
establish a model bill on public utility regulation to be adopted by all
state legislatures. Weinstein mentions that the NCF did create a model
bill on public utility regulation in October 1914, but does not discuss
whether (and which) states actually adopted it. So any informtion on
state-level or, even better, comparative, cross-state studies of public
utility regulation would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
