Nationalism and the Irish Party
Author: Michael Wheatley
Publisher: OUP Oxford
ISBN: 9780191556838
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
John Redmond's constitutional, parliamentary, Irish Party went from dominating Irish politics to oblivion in just four years from 1914-1918. The goal of limited Home Rule, peacefully achieved, appeared to die with it. Given the speed of the party's collapse, its death has been seen as inevitable. Though such views have been challenged, there has been no detailed study of the Irish Party in the last years of union with Britain, before the world war and the Easter Rising transformed Irish politics. Through a study of five counties in provincial Ireland - Leitrim, Longford, Roscommon, Sligo, and Westmeath - that history has now been written. Far from being 'rotten', the Irish Party was representative of nationalist opinion and still capable of self-renewal and change. However, the Irish nationalism at this time was also suffused with a fierce anglophobia and sense of grievance, defined by its enemies, which rapidly came to the fore, first in the Home Rule crisis and then in the war. Redmond's project, the peaceful attainment of Home Rule, simply could not be realised.

Labour and Partition

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.
