Railway Regulation: State and Interstate is a book written by Robert Marion La Follette and published in 1905. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the regulation of railways in both state and interstate levels in the United States. La Follette, who was a prominent American politician and reformer, discusses the history of railway regulation, the challenges faced by regulators, and the various regulatory frameworks that have been implemented over time. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on state regulation and the second part on interstate regulation. In the first part, La Follette examines the regulation of railways in individual states, discussing the various approaches taken by different states and the challenges faced by state regulators. He also looks at the role of state commissions in regulating railways and the impact of state regulation on the industry.In the second part, La Follette turns his attention to interstate regulation, which was a relatively new concept at the time. He discusses the development of interstate regulation, including the creation of the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC), and the challenges faced by regulators in overseeing the complex network of railways that spanned multiple states. He also looks at the impact of interstate regulation on the industry and the broader economy.Overall, Railway Regulation: State and Interstate is a comprehensive and insightful analysis of the regulation of railways in the United States. It provides a valuable historical perspective on the development of railway regulation and offers insights into the challenges that regulators continue to face in overseeing this critical industry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
