dc.description.abstract | The chief benefit which the Incumbered Estates Act has
conferred upon Ireland, has been the substitution of solvent for
insolvent proprietors To appreciate the full extent of this change,
we must raise our views above the notion of considering the ownership
of land as a mere right for the convenience of the person who
happens to possess it. It is in truth a high office, carrying with it
great power and influence, and forming the basis of a large part of
our arrangements for local government.
This view of a landlord's position assists us in explaining the anarchy
and disorganization of Ireland for the past half century. A
large part of the governing classes were in a false position. Hence
the want of confidence between different classes, hence the attacks
on the character of the people, hence the delusive theories to account
for the state of the country, and hence the opposition to all
changes and improvements. | en |
