This fourth volume in the Writings and Speeches of Edmund Burke
series is also the last of the three Party and Parliament volumes,
which follow Edmund Burke through from the opening of a newly
elected Parliament which assembled on 31 October 1780 to his
retirement from the Commons in 1794. This volume addresses Burke's
views on the authority of Parliament over the British provinces in
India, and his concerns about the implications of the French
Revolution for British politics. He also expresses his views on
issues that had always greatly interested him, such as the reform
of criminal law, the confinement of debtors, and the abolition of
what he regarded as outmoded economic regulations. The texts for
the items, which have appeared in previous editions of Burke's
Works, have been reconstructed, largely by the use of manuscripts,
and many of the shorter speeches appear here in print for the first
time.
