The Partition of Ireland 1918–1925, by Robert Lynch
From Giuseppe Mazzini in the 1830s to Woodrow Wilson in the 1910s, democratic nationalists argued that the evils of war and oppression would be removed by liberating nations from imperial oppression. A democratic state, neutral in matters of religion, would facilitate the emergence of a political and national environment where diversity would not attract persecution. After 1919 this model was exported and appropriated by new states, including Tur…
Afterword
The Cambridge Social History of Modern Ireland
Covering three centuries of unprecedented demographic and economic changes, this textbook is an authoritative and comprehensive view of the shaping of Irish society, at home and abroad, from the famine of 1740 to the present day. The first major work on the history of modern Ireland to adopt a social history perspective, it focuses on the experiences and agency of Irish men, women and children, Catholics and Protestants, and in the North, South a…
A Long Way to Tipperary
‘The Irish are out in force’: it was a rainy summer day on the fields of the Somme, and they were very young, in their early teens, in fact. However, this was not 1916, but 2016, when the centenary of one of the bloodiest battles in history attracted an international crowd, including large contingents of school children from the Republic. In contrast to the 50th anniversary, which, in 1966, had been a ‘Unionist’ commemoration – claimed by the Nor…
The Irish Revolution, 1916–23
The state funeral of Thomas Kent in the churchyard of a North Cork village last September was a moving event. Yet the crowds were not grieving a recent loss: Kent had been dead for ninety-nine years: he had been shot as a rebel in the aftermath of the 1916 Easter Rising. Now his body was coming home, and so was the memory of the Revolution. The local dimension of that event and its national and international significance were all well represented…
The Irish Parliamentary Party and the Third Home Rule Crisis, by James McConnel
How significant is the legacy that the Irish Parliamentary Party (IPP) left to the Irish Free State? Is there a democratic tradition which the Nationalists created and bequeathed to the ‘founding fathers’ of independent Ireland? One way to approach this question is to study how the IPP operated both at Westminster and in the constituencies—that is, how its MPs understood both their role as representatives in an imperial parliament and their visio…

The Risorgimento and the Unification of Italy
This book introduces the reader to the relationship between the Italian national movement, achieved by the Risorgimento, and the Italian unification in 1860. These themes are discussed in detail and related to the broader European theatre. Covering the literary, cultural, religious and political history of the period, Beales and Biagini show Italy struggled towards nation state status on all fronts.The new edition has been thoroughly rewritten. I…
John Bright
John Bright is probably the least studied of the ‘great Victorians’. Unlike his close colleague Richard Cobden—who has attracted a substantial amount of scholarly attention in recent years—Bright has inspired only four major studies since 1946, including the one reviewed here. For Bill Cash, such comparative neglect is unjustifiable and almost incomprehensible in view of Bright’s contribution to the making of mid-Victorian Britain, and indeed of …

The Minority Voice
In recent years in Ireland there has been a considerable increase of scholarly interest in the history both of religious minorities and of social attitudes to ethnic and cultural diversity. The sources available are rich and diverse, ranging from church and business records to the writings and private correspondence of community leaders such as the man-of-letters, public moralist and human rights campaigner Hubert Butler. The latter left copious …
Solitary and Wild
The centenary commemorations of the signing of the 1912 Ulster Solemn League and Covenant have provided opportunities to revisit and reassess the wider context and some of the protagonists of this event, which set the stage for the Irish Revolution. Among the characters who have been rediscovered, one of the most interesting is Frederick MacNeice, a controversial Protestant church leader who opposed Edward Carson’s policy. In 1912 Frederick MacNe…
The Sutherland Estate, 1850-1920, by Annie Tindley
In the second half of the nineteenth century, the Dukes of Sutherland, with an estate comprising over one million acres, formed the largest and perhaps richest estate family in Western Europe. For this reason alone Annie Tindley’s book examines not merely a well-selected case-study: it is more about the history of a principality, a window on the world of the Scottish nobility at the apex of their power. From the beginning of the century the famil…

The Irish Establishment, 1879-1914, by Fergus Campbell
Citizenship and religion in the Italian constitutions, 1796–1849
This article explores the link between religion and politics, religious liberty and the rights of religious minorities, by focusing on the constitutions which Italian states adopted and discarded from 1796 to 1849. It concerns questions about the ‘national character’ and the rights and duties of the citizen, and argues that – far from being ‘an outlet’ for material discontent – questions of religious identity and pluralism were integral to the Ri…
Ireland, radicalism and the Scottish Highlands, c.1870-1912
It is ironic that the most revolutionary socio-economic question in Victorian Britain and Ireland was not connected to the plight of factory workers in the new industrial towns—as Marx and Engels had prophesied—but to the problems of agricultural labour in the ‘peripheral’ areas of the country. If the ‘land wars’ in the United Kingdom were not straightforward examples of ‘class’ struggle, they were as close to it as any social conflict could poss…

Giuseppe Mazzini and the Globalization of Democratic Nationalism, 1830-1920
Giuseppe Mazzini – Italian patriot, humanist, and republican – was one of the most celebrated and revered political activists and thinkers of the 19th century. This volume compares and contrasts the perception of his thought and the transformation of his image across the world. Mazzini's contribution to the Italian Risorgimento was unparalleled; he stood for a ‘religion of humanity’; he argued against tyranny, and for universal education, a democ…

British Trade Unions and Popular Political Economy, 1860–1880
This paper is a study of the relationship between economic culture and trade union economic subculture during the years in which both the Victorian trade union movement and the classical economists' view of it reached their maturity. This period represented a turning point in the history of the movement, which achieved a full institutionalization and legitimation. The Webbs, and a historiographic tradition since them, maintained that these result…

Liberty, Class and Nation-Building
This article explores the political thought of a leading Italian intellectual after his conversion from Jacobinism to liberalism. It shows the extent to which Foscolo was abreast of the then contemporary debate on constitutional government and nation-building. Moreover, it illustrates how he combined liberal with civic humanist and republican ideas, as well as idealism and Realpolitik in his perception of the problems faced by small nations strug…

Neo-roman liberalism
A contribution to the liberalism-republicanism debate from a political historian's point of view, this essay focuses on Britain in the mid-Victorian period—arguably the golden age of modern liberalism. The first part argues that the writings and political ideas of the leading liberal thinkers were imbued with 'neo-roman' values, including participatory citizenship, civic virtue and concern for the common good. The second part discusses the dissem…

Currents of Radicalism
'Those who were originally called radicals and afterwards reformers, are called Chartists', declared Thomas Duncombe before Parliament in 1842, a comment which can be adapted for a later period and as a description of this collection of papers: 'those who were originally called Chartists were afterwards called Liberal and Labour activists'. In other words, the central argument of this book is that there was a substantial continuity in popular rad…

Citizenship and Community
In 1883 the radical journalist W. E. Adams described community self-government as 'the essence of all political liberalism that is worthy of the name'. This collaborative volume of essays enlarges upon Adams' thesis, applying it to the study of various 'currents of radicalism' in Britain and Ireland, and ranging from Victorian advanced liberals to Irish and Welsh socialists in the 1920s.

Ideology and the Making of New Labours
In 1935 George Dangerfield published The Strange Death of Liberal England. This book, which soon became a classic of sorts, claimed to explain the passing away of a political tradition allegedly unable to thrive in the postwar climate. Nationalism, class politics, and militant trade unionism were the characteristics of the mature twentieth century. However, Dangerfield's condolences were premature. In April 1992, almost sixty years after the publ…

British Democracy and Irish Nationalism 1876–1906
A major 2007 study of the impact of Home Rule on liberalism and popular radicalism in Britain and Ireland. Eugenio Biagini argues that between 1876 and 1906 the crisis of public conscience caused by the Home Rule debate acted as the main catalyst in the remaking of popular radicalism. This was not only because of Ireland's intrinsic importance but also because the 'Irish cause' came to be identified with democracy, constitutional freedoms and hum…
