Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the secretive and complex system of exchange rates between Great Britain and Ireland from the late 18th century onwards. The author argues that this system was the unwitting cause of a range of Ireland's economic woes, and that those with knowledge of how it worked used that knowledge to enrich themselves at the expense of the Irish people. Providing deep historical and theoretical context for the Irish economic crisis, the book also reveals how this economic system gave disproportionate power to the "Governors of Exchange" and kept the Irish government dependent on them. The author demonstrates that the negative effects of this system extended to nearly every sector of Irish society and the economy, and paints a grim picture of the consequences of an opaque and complex economic system when it falls into the hands of those who prioritize their own gain.
