Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of responses to fallacies commonly put forward in support of the Corn Laws, which were a series of Acts restricting the import of foreign corn into the United Kingdom and were highly controversial in the 19th century. The author, a proponent of Free Trade, believed that the Corn Laws were unjustly enriching landowners at the expense of the rest of society, particularly the urban poor. Through a series of letters, the author addresses arguments advanced by those in favor of the Corn Laws, systematically dismantling each of their claims, with particular focus on the harm these policies caused to Britain's industrial and commercial growth. His responses are well-researched and contain historical context and economic reasoning to bolster his arguments for the abolition of the Corn Laws. This book is a valuable contribution to the history of economic thought and provides insight into a key debate in British politics and economics during the 19th century.
