<em>Popular Sovereignty</em> is an important <em>enlightenment</em> idea that established that the sovereign power is vested among the people who are being governed and choose to be governed. This means the government gets power from the people and the people who are being governed are the <em>source</em> of political power. This is present in the US because the US Government politically acts based on the citizens. To be specific, people can express themselves to the government by having the obligation to <em>vote</em> and <em>directly participate in the government</em> by attending town meetings and such.

At the turn of the 20th century, American cities had the following:
- Corruption
- Gangs
- Tenements
- Pollution and sanitation issues
As the cities grew so also did corruption as people sought to make it however way they could. Gangs were also formed for the same reason and terrorized many cities as they had political backing.

In conclusion, American cities had a lot of negatives at the turn of the 20th century.
