Erratum 

 

1. The first page of the article now reads as follows: 

 

"If you wish to know what the spirit of conquest, religious hatred, combined with all the abuses of 

aristocracy without any of its advantages, can produce, come to Ireland." - Alexis de Tocqueville, 

18351 

"I remember when the market took off, about 1988/89 . . . We'd no idea it was going to 

escalate into what it did. Nobody had experienced the type of boom that came. There was a lot of 

money made in that period. People who cashed in did very well." - An Irish auctioneer, 20052 

 

 

From the imperially imposed destitution rued by aristocratic iconoclasts Tocqueville and 

Beaumont to the epic financial meltdown imposed by domestic quasi-aristocratic bankers and 

allied insiders is quite a rocky journey, but one with steady themes: deference to authority, 

comprador capitulation to external forces, celebration of the conventional, and exclusion or 

erasure of anyone the least bit critical of elite schemes…3
