What Shall We Do for Ireland?

John Maloney

Chapter 6 in The Political Economy of Robert Lowe, 2005, pp 59-70 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Lowe had shown his anti-relativist leanings early in his career, when in 1853 he turned in a minority report on Indian law reform. The majority of the parliamentary commission (set up under the 1853 India Act) had insisted on tailoring Indian laws to the specific needs and traditions of the different states. Unnecessary, said Lowe: English law was already in force across much of India, and the commission should save its time by bringing the remaining districts into line. But Lowe’s best-known assault on relativism was incidental to the Irish question.
