Looks at the deeply controversial role of political economy, and especially the policy of laissez-faire, during the Great Irish Famine. For its defenders, the free market was a self-regulating system and 'interference' with it by the state was fraught with danger; for its critics, state 'intervention' was crucial to save human lives.
