¿Qué causó la hambruna de la papa irlandesa?
Was the Potato Famine an ecological accident, as historians usually say? Like most famines, it had little to do with declines in food production as such. In fact, the most glaring cause of the famine was not a plant disease, but England’s long-running political hegemony over Ireland. The English conquered Ireland, several times, and took ownership of vast agricultural territory. Large chunks of land were given to Englishmen.
