Product Description
This was the first comprehensive study of the IRA's attempts to create a "social republicanism," a marriage between militant nationalism and the politics of the left. From agitation among the peasantry in the 1920s Henry Patterson analyzes the various failed attempts to marry two fundamentally incompatible ideologies.
Friend and foe have historically described the IRA as "socialists," "Marxists" and "fascists" or simply as militaristic and murderous thugs. In this highly praised work the author steers us through the complex, schismatic and inevitably secretive history of both the Provisional and Official IRA, Sinn Fein and the various organizations with which they have been associated. He teases out the meaning and significance of the twists and turns in republican policy, which at different periods have involved working with trade unions, collaboration with Nazi Germany, support for tenants fighting for better housing, hunger strikes, and, of course, both urban and rural guerrilla warfare.
