Influences of the Corn Laws, as Affecting All Classes of the Community
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the historical and contemporary consequences of the Corn Laws, legislation that restricted grain imports to protect British agriculture. The author argues that these laws, intended to stabilize prices, instead led to wild fluctuations that benefited no one. The rapid expansion of wheat cultivation, driven by high prices, resulted in overproduction and subsequent collapse. This volatility not only harmed farmers who faced ruinously low prices in surplus years but also consumers who paid inflated prices during scarcity. The book concludes that free and open trade in grain would have benefited all parties involved and highlights the importance of understanding the unintended consequences of government intervention in the economy. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330840139_0
