A Further Inquiry Into the Expediency of Applying the Principles of Colonial
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book thoroughly examines the history, structure, and functions of the East India Company, arguing for its dissolution. The author contends that the East India Company, established in the 16th century as a commercial enterprise, has outlived its purpose and has become an expensive and obstructive institution. It presents evidence to demonstrate the advantages of free trade over the Company's monopoly, highlighting the economic benefits and the importance of individual liberty. The book also explores the political implications of the Company's presence in India, challenging the idea that it is necessary for the maintenance of British rule. Through a comprehensive analysis of historical documents and expert testimony, the author builds a compelling case for the abolition of the East India Company, emphasizing the potential for economic growth, social progress, and the advancement of individual rights in India once it is removed.
