Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book discusses the abolition of the Irish Vice-Royalty. The author believes that the mere transfer of executive power across the Irish Sea would be a mistake. Instead, he argues, there should be a complete merging of Irish and English executive functions to form a single, national government. He contends that such a move would not only be more efficient but would also contribute to positive, social change in Ireland itself. The author's views echo similar sentiments expressed by Lord John Russell in May 1850 when he announced to Parliament that a fourth Secretary of State would be added to oversee the transfer of executive power from Dublin to London but did not offer any details beyond this.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the financial consequences of England's suspension of the gold standard in 1797, and its subsequent resumption in 1819. The author examines the impact on government creditors and debtors, demonstrating that the nation's loss due to restored value was preceded by significant gains during the period of currency devaluation. The book challenges the prevailing narrative of one-sided loss by highlighting the financial benefits the government derived from the suspension. By comparing the effects of currency fluctuations on fixed payments made during and after the depreciation, the author presents a nuanced understanding of the complex relationship between the standard of value and the distribution of wealth. Ultimately, this book provides valuable insights into the historical context of monetary policy and its implications for government finance, making it a valuable resource for economists, historians, and anyone interested in the evolution of financial systems.
