Labour and Partition
Author: Austen Morgan
Publisher: Pluto Press (UK)
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
Austen Morgan's study of Belfast labour politics in the years 1905-1923, is aimed at anyone wishing to understand the origins, extent and real significance of sectarian divisions and rivalries within Northern Ireland's working class. The book contributes to the history of the Belfast working class and of the political movements - laborist, socialist, nationalist, republican, unionist and loyalist - which competed for its support. The book provokes reassessments not only of the period under study but of the ideological concepts and the relationships between class, religion, loyalism and the labour movement in Belfast past and present.

Hesitant Comrades
Author: Geoffrey Bell
Publisher: Pluto Press (UK)
ISBN: 9780745336657
Category : Ireland
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Geoffrey Bell's Hesitant Comrades is the first published history of the policies, actions and attitudes of the British working class towards the Irish national revolution of 1916-21. Drawing principally on primary sources, Bell brings to light for the first time important incidents in British/Irish history, including how the leaders of British trade unions were complicit in Belfast loyalist sectarianism; the troubled nature of the Labour Party's relations with its Irish community; and how the Bolsheviks criticised British Marxists over their inaction on Ireland. The author also looks at socialist debates on the compatibility of Irish nationalism with socialism and the contentious 'Ulster question'. Participants examined range from Ramsay MacDonald to Sylvia Pankhurst. Based on in-depth research - with sources ranging from newly discovered writings to reports of police spies - Hesitant Comrades is a scholarly, provocative and groundbreaking perspective on the fragile relationship between the British left and the Irish revolution.--Cover.

Unmanageable Revolutionaries
Author: Margaret Ward
Publisher: Syracuse University Press
ISBN: 9781851322565
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 460
Book Description
In Unmanageable Revolutionaries, Margaret Ward describes how Irish women (despite their frequent omission from the history books) have always played a key role in the struggle for independence. Ward depicts the role women have played in the Irish struggle from 1881 to the present day, particularly in the crucial post-1916 period, and in doing so underlines the irony whereby fellow nationalists, despite their common struggle, remained factionalized. The book focuses on three pivotal Irish nationalist women's organizations--the Ladies Land League, Inghinidhe na hEireann and Cumann na mBan--and shows how, despite the inherent differences between the three movements, a salient theme emerges, namely the underwhelming extent to which Irish women have been recognized as a driving force in Irish political history.

Irish Freedom
Author: Richard English
Publisher: Pan Macmillan
ISBN: 0330475827
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 660
Book Description
Richard English's brilliant new book, now available in paperback, is a compelling narrative history of Irish nationalism, in which events are not merely recounted but analysed. Full of rich detail, drawn from years of original research and also from the extensive specialist literature on the subject, it offers explanations of why Irish nationalists have believed and acted as they have, why their ideas and strategies have changed over time, and what effect Irish nationalism has had in shaping modern Ireland. It takes us from the Ulster Plantation to Home Rule, from the Famine of 1847 to the Hunger Strikes of the 1970s, from Parnell to Pearse, from Wolfe Tone to Gerry Adams, from the bitter struggle of the Civil War to the uneasy peace of the early twenty-first century. Is it imaginable that Ireland might – as some have suggested – be about to enter a post-nationalist period? Or will Irish nationalism remain a defining force on the island in future years? 'a courageous and successful attempt to synthesise the entire story between two covers for the neophyte and for the exhausted specialist alike' Tom Garvin, Irish Times

Protestant Nationalists in Ireland, 1900-1923
Author: Conor Morrissey
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9781108462877
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 263
Book Description
From the turn of the twentieth century until the end of the Irish Civil War, Protestant nationalists forged a distinct counterculture within an increasingly Catholic nationalist movement. Drawing on a wide range of primary and secondary sources, Conor Morrissey charts the development of nationalism within Protestantism, and describes the ultimate failure of this tradition. The book traces the re-emergence of Protestant nationalist activism in the literary and language movements of the 1890s, before reconstructing their distinctive forms of organisation in the following decades. Morrissey shows how Protestants, mindful of their minority status, formed interlinked networks of activists, and developed a vibrant associational culture. He describes how the increasingly Catholic nature of nationalism - particularly following the Easter Rising - prompted Protestants to adopt a variety of strategies to ensure their voices were still heard. Ultimately, this ambitious and wide-ranging book explores the relationship between religious denomination and political allegiance, casting fresh light on an often-misunderstood period.
