Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines a topic of poignant concern in Ireland at the time of its writing: the disparity between economic classes, the plight of the poor, and the varied factors which were seen to contribute to a lack of economic and cultural advancement among impoverished communities. The author seeks to move beyond blaming only the Irish landlords for the country's economic stratification, and instead examines the complicated interplay between landlord and tenant, as well as other social and economic forces at play in Ireland. The book is rich with historical and cultural references, providing a well-grounded view of both the complex economic and social forces of the time, and the Irish identity itself. The author concludes that to move forward Ireland needs more than just legislative intervention, and calls for sweeping changes in the attitudes and behavior of both the landed gentry and the tenant farmers to lift up Ireland's most vulnerable communities.
