(Albert Venn) 1835 1922 Dicey, Albert Venn England's Case Against Home Rule E-text prepared by Jonathan Ingram, Susan Skinner, and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team "England's Case Against Home Rule" by A. V. Dicey is a political treatise written in the late 19th century that critically examines the notion of Home Rule for Ireland from an English perspective. The book focuses on the constitutional implications of granting Ireland parliamentary independence, arguing that it poses significant risks to the British Constitution and potentially undermines the stability of the United Kingdom. Dicey positions himself as an informed critic, drawing on his understanding of constitutional law rather than as a specialist on Irish affairs. The opening of this work presents Dicey's rationale for discussing Home Rule, emphasizing the potential constitutional changes it would necessitate and the impact such changes could have on British interests. He outlines his aims to analyze the arguments for Home Rule and to argue that it could be as damaging to England as the complete separation of Ireland would be. He emphasizes a need for impartiality in discussing what he believes is a complex and deeply divisive issue, acknowledging that the feelings and historical grievances surrounding the Irish question complicate rational debate. The beginning establishes the intellectual framework for Dicey's argument, which he aims to explore in detail throughout the text. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
