Description

In the aftermath of the Great War, Europe s empires crumbled and a patchwork of new nation states emerged across the continent. As the map of Europe was being redrawn after 1918, Ireland too stood on the threshold of great change. The 1920s were a formative decade for Ireland, both north and south of the border, but is all too often dismissed as one of stagnation. In contract to this belief, the contributions to this important new collection provide a refreshingly alternative view of this significant decade, all serving to reignite the debate about how modern Ireland was defined and how statehood collided with national identities and allegiances. The relationship between government policy and the emerging state is explored in chapters focusing on Free State election posters, loyalty and treason, the 1923 Land Act, the Irish Farmers Party and parliamentary democracy. Other contributions look at how economic policy shaped the lives of ordinary Irish citizens and continue to have an impact today, long after Ireland s struggle for independence.
