Corn-Law Fallacies: With The Answers is a book written by Thomas Perronet Thompson in 1839. The book is an analysis of the Corn Laws that were in effect in England during the 19th century. The Corn Laws were a set of laws that restricted the import of foreign grain into England, which led to higher prices for grain and other agricultural products in England. Thompson argues that the Corn Laws were based on fallacious reasoning and that they were detrimental to the economy and the well-being of the people of England. He provides a detailed analysis of the arguments used by the proponents of the Corn Laws and refutes them with evidence and logic. The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the Corn Laws and their history. The second part analyzes the fallacies that were used to justify the Corn Laws, such as the idea that the laws protected the interests of the farmers and the idea that the laws were necessary to maintain the balance of trade. The third part provides answers to the fallacies and proposes alternative policies that would benefit the economy and the people of England. Overall, Corn-Law Fallacies: With The Answers is a comprehensive and persuasive argument against the Corn Laws. It is an important historical document that sheds light on the economic and political debates of the 19th century and provides insights into the development of modern economic theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
