Against Home Rule (Classic Reprint): The Case for the Union: The Case for the Union (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Inhaltsangabe
A concise, paper‑based argument about Ireland and Home Rule from a British perspective, focusing on finance, transit, and key public works.
This edition presents Arthur J. Balfour’s case against Irish home rule. It surveys the financial pressures a new Irish government would face and argues that a single United Kingdom Parliament is best for Ireland’s transit, canals, drainage, and public services. The text weighs the cost of major infrastructure projects and the role of imperial credit in funding them, offering a pro‑Union view on how to manage Ireland’s roads, rails, and waterways.
The discussion centers on practical policy choices, including how railways might be consolidated, the potential for state involvement, and the dangers of an isolated Irish system. It also considers the balance between economic development and political autonomy, using examples from canals, drainage, and cross‑channel transport to illustrate the broader question of governance.
- Explanations of funding large public works under imperial finance.
- Arguments for railway amalgamation and standardized, larger companies.
- Analysis of canals and inland navigation as tools of national progress.
- Discussion of how transit policy interacts with taxation and governance.
Ideal for readers interested in historical debates over empire, economics, and the politics of Ireland’s status within the United Kingdom.
