The Irish Revolution: A Global History reevaluates this conflict as inherently transnational, exploring how circumstances and individuals abroad influenced Ireland's quest for independence. This comprehensive volume, brought together by esteemed international scholars of modern Ireland, its diaspora, and the British Empire, delves into the Irish revolution from a truly global perspective.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe text contextualizes the conflict within the broader context of the international resurgence of anti-colonial movements following World War I. Despite their distinct differences, these movements engaged in extensive communication and learning from each other, particularly in anti-imperial metropoles like Paris, London, and New York. The contributors to this volume argue that Irish nationalists both at home and abroad played a pivotal role in this exchange, from mobilizing Ireland's vast diaspora to supporting Irish independence to engaging directly with radical causes elsewhere.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Irish Revolution is a crucial work for anyone interested in Irish history, offering a fresh perspective on Ireland's role in the evolving postwar world. It sheds light on the complex interplay of domestic and international factors that shaped the course of Ireland's struggle for independence and highlights the profound impact of global events on the nation's history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 732g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 237 x 160 x 33 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781479808892\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44095752241402,"sku":"9781479808892","price":26.76,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1654857150657_book.jpg?v=1655095672","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-irish-revolution-a-global-history-9781479808892","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
