Mr. Mill's Plan For The Pacification Of Ireland: Examined (1868)

By Frederick Hamilton-Temple-Blackwood

Book Overview

""Mr. Mill's Plan for the Pacification of Ireland: Examined"" is a book written by Frederick Temple Blackwood, also known as Lord Dufferin, in 1868. The book is a critique of the political philosopher John Stuart Mill's proposed solution for the ongoing conflict in Ireland between the British government and Irish nationalists. In his work, Mill had suggested that Ireland should be granted a greater degree of self-government, including the ability to manage its own affairs and finances. However, Lord Dufferin argues that Mill's plan is flawed and would ultimately lead to the disintegration of the United Kingdom. Through a detailed analysis of Mill's proposals, Lord Dufferin highlights the practical difficulties and potential dangers of implementing such a plan. He also offers his own suggestions for how the British government should approach the issue of Irish autonomy, advocating for a more cautious and incremental approach.Overall, ""Mr. Mill's Plan for the Pacification of Ireland: Examined"" is a thought-provoking and insightful work that sheds light on the complex political and social issues of 19th-century Ireland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
