Propaganda has always had a role in Irish history: from the twelfth century, when the Leabhar Gabhaela (Book of Invasions)3 was written, through to the nineteenth, when two varieties of Irishman fought their Home Rule battles, the projection of inclusive and exclusive images was of central importance to the island’s political elite. Yet a glance at the current body of research implies that, just as the age of mass communications seemed certain to produce an exponential growth in the importance of propaganda, unionists somehow lost their ability to define, articulate and justify their beliefs. In other words partition, symbolically presented as the cutting of Ireland’s throat, seems to have cost unionism its vocal cords.
