Transnational Perspectives on Modern Irish History
This book explores the benefits and challenges of transnational history for the study of modern Ireland. In recent years the word transnational has become more and more conspicuous in history writing across the globe, with scholars seeking to move beyond national and local frameworks when investigating the past. Yet transnational approaches remain rare in Irish historical scholarship. This book argues that the broader contexts and scales associated with transnational history are ideally suited to generate new questions on many themes of critical importance to Irelands past and present. They also provide an important means of challenging ideas of Irish exceptionalism. The chapters included here open up new perspectives on central debates and events in Irish history. They illuminate numerous transnational lives, follow flows and connections across Irish borders, and trace networks and links with Europe, North America, the Caribbean, Australia and the British Empire. This book provides specialists and students with examples of different concepts and ways of doing transnational history. Nonspecialists will be interested in the new perspectives offered here on a rich variety of topics, particularly the two major events in modern Irish history, the Great Irish Famine and the 1916 Rising.
Niall Whelehan is a Marie Curie Fellow in history at the University of Edinburgh.

Frontispiece: The Irish World, 24 March 1877
Since the early 1990s transnational approaches have become increasingly conspicuous in history writing in Europe and North America, yet they are still relatively uncommon in modern Irish historiography. Despite the application of wide-ranging concepts such as diaspora, empire and the Atlantic world in scholarly writing on Irish people and their activities abroad, national and local frameworks have remained dominant in the historiography of modern Ireland. Central themes such as nationalism, migration, religion, the Great Famine and violence are regularly debated within remarkably insular lines in view of the importance of the wider world to Irish history and society. This book asks what new questions and perspectives transnationalism can bring to modern Irish history and aims to demonstrate some of the advantages of transnational Irish history in practice. The chapters included here illustrate that exploring the manifold aspects of modern Irish history requires some transnational frame of reference that balances larger contexts with smaller-scale analysis at local or individual levels.
In this volume transnational history is understood as a perspective, rather than a new historical paradigm or master narrative. It is not a separate or autonomous field, but a way of seeing that aims to complement national history rather than replace it. Instead of choosing between the local, national and transnational, new approaches explore how one relates to the other. Transnational history is a means to challenge impressions of national uniqueness and exceptionalism, to transcend the borders of the nation-state and trace connections and parallel developments between multiple territories. At the same time, the approach requires more than simply describing the existence of cross-border movements and connections. The burden of proof for the historian rests on how flows, circulations, parallels and exchanges are productive, how they lead to transformations and tensions, or why they fail to do so.
