Politics

From the book The Clergyman’s Hand-book of Law, about Politics (1): A minister who had been expelled by his congregation for voting the Democratic ticket, had some of the members of the church arrested under the election laws for intimidating a voter. The court held that as he “suffered no pecuniary loss, personal injury, or physical restraint,” no crime was committed.752

Literature Review on Politics and Ethics

In the Encyclopedia of Public Administration and Public Policy, [1] David Schultz offers the following summary about the topic of Politics and Ethics: The topic of ethics and politics examines whether there is any relationship between private ethics—the ethics of everyday life regarding how private individuals treat one another—and the ethics of politics and political action. It also asks the question regarding what standards of conduct are expected of political leaders and whether there is a unique ethics of political action. Historically, the issue of how ethics and politics were related was a religious question, but increasingly the topic, at least in the West, is a secular one now. Questions of political ethics now explore issues about the conduct of the state in international affairs, public officials, citizens, and matters of public policy.
