Description

This landmark 1970 study by Galen Broeker examines a pivotal forty-year period following the Irish union, when rural violence posed a major challenge to British government authority. Broeker traces how Irish peasant organisations terrorised the countryside in protest against political and economic systems threatening their survival, and analyses the formation of the Peace Preservation Force in 1814 as a response to endemic sporadic violence in the rural south and west. The book provides essential historical context for understanding law and order struggles during this turbulent era of Irish history and the government's attempts to establish control through institutional reform.

Key Features

Galen Broeker's comprehensive account covers forty years of rural Irish history from the union onwards, documenting the government's struggle to maintain law and order.

The book examines peasant organisations and their campaign of countryside terrorism as a form of protest against threatening political and economic conditions.

Analysis of the Peace Preservation Force, established in 1814, reveals the institutional response to endemic rural violence in Ireland's south and west regions.

First published in 1970, this Routledge Library Editions volume offers a scholarly historical perspective on crime, punishment and police reform in nineteenth-century Ireland.
