Produktbeschreibung
In comparison with North American or European historiography, debates about transnational history have been slower to arrive in Ireland, perhaps as a result of the national focus that characterized the revisionist debates that dominated Irish historiography in recent decades. 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. Building on this recent work, 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.
