Niall Whelehan

Transnational Perspectives on Modern Irish History

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Debates about transnational history have been slow to arrive in Ireland. However, the centrality of nation-state frameworks of analysis in history and social science research is being brought increasingly into question, and some recent interventions have advanced a transnational agenda in Irish history. This book argues that there is a straightforward case to be made for adopting transnational approaches to modern Irish history, as they are perfectly suited to further explore subjects such as nationalism, empire, and diaspora, that historians have long recognized to be vitally important to Ireland's past and present.
