About This Book
The author examines how British political and fiscal policies systematically constrained manufacturing and commerce in Ireland, tracing statutes, parliamentary debates, and executive actions that prioritized English interests. He outlines the constitutional relationship that enabled such interference, describes the principal restrictive laws and the opposition to Irish commercial initiatives, and assesses their immediate economic effects that reinforced agricultural dependence. The study concludes with an analysis of commercial arrangements before and after the legislative union, asserting that these legal measures inflicted enduring injury on indigenous industry.
