The Treaty: Debating and Establishing the Irish State (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781788550413)

The Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1921 was narrowly accepted by the revolutionary D疂l ﾉireann in January 1922, splitting Sinn F駟n irrevocably and leading to the Irish Civil War, a rupture that still defines the Irish political landscape almost one hundred years on.

Drawing together the work of a diverse range of scholars, who each re-examine this critical period in Irish political history from a variety of fascinating perspectives, The Treaty addresses the vexed question of the vote itself--how political factions were represented and how they fashioned their fervent rhetoric--and the enduring shockwaves it sent through Irish society.
