Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This insightful and compelling book explores the historical and contemporary state of landownership in Ireland, arguing that it has been, and continues to be, a major cause of suffering and impoverishment for the Irish people. The author, an experienced observer of Irish society, argues that the country's land has been monopolized by a small number of wealthy landowners and speculators, many of whom are absentee owners living outside the country, leading to the expulsion of native Irish farmers and rural workers, mass emigration, and appalling urban poverty. Exploring the historical roots of this monopoly back to English colonialism, the author provides a detailed description of the abuses and injustices inflicted upon Irish tenant farmers, who were forced to live in conditions of abject poverty and subservience, regularly subjected to arbitrary evictions and rent increases. The author also examines the impact of this landlordism on Irish society and culture, arguing that it has led to social unrest, political instability, and a deep sense of alienation and disaffection among the Irish people, leaving a legacy of anger and bitterness that continues to shape Irish politics and society to this day. This book is a powerful and persuasive indictment of the evils of landlordism, demonstrating how it has impoverished and oppressed the Irish people.
