The British Left and Ireland in the Twentieth Century: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The British Left and Ireland in the Twentieth Century" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This collection explores how the British left has interacted with the Irish question throughout the twentieth century, the lefts expression of solidarity with Irish republicanism and relationships built with Irish political movements.

Throughout the twentieth century, the British left expressed, to varying degrees, solidarity with Irish republicanism and fostered links with republican, nationalist, socialist and labour groups in Ireland. Although this peaked with the Irish Revolution from 1916 to 1923 and during the Troubles in the 1970s80s, this collection shows that the British left sought to build relationships with their Irish counterparts (in both the North and South) from the Edwardian to Thatcherite period. However these relationships were much more fraught and often reflected an imperial dynamic, which hindered political action at different stages during the century. This collection explores various stages in Irish political history where the British left attempted to engage with what was happening across the Irish Sea.

The chapters in this book were originally published in the journal, Contemporary British History.
