Letters On Unionist Delusions is a book written by Albert Venn Dicey in 1887. The book is a collection of letters written by Dicey, a British jurist and constitutional scholar, to The Times newspaper. The letters were written in response to the rising tide of Unionism in Britain at the time, which advocated for the maintenance of the union between Great Britain and Ireland.The book provides a detailed critique of the arguments put forward by Unionists, who believed that the union between Great Britain and Ireland was essential for the stability and prosperity of both countries. Dicey argues that the Unionist position is based on a series of delusions, including the belief that the union is necessary to maintain British supremacy and that it is the only way to prevent the spread of Irish nationalism.Dicey also challenges the Unionist claim that the people of Ireland are content with the status quo, arguing that they are in fact deeply dissatisfied with their position within the union. He suggests that the only way to address this dissatisfaction is to grant Ireland greater autonomy and to work towards a more equal relationship between the two countries.Overall, Letters On Unionist Delusions is a powerful critique of Unionism in Britain and provides a compelling argument for greater autonomy for Ireland. The book remains relevant today as debates continue over the future of the union between Great Britain and Northern Ireland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
