This course considers the history of the whole of Ireland between the Easter Rising and the conclusion of the 'Troubles'. Aspects featured include the Rising and its aftermath, the Anglo-Irish War, the subsequent establishment of two distinct political entities in 1920/1922 and the Irish Civil War (1922-1923). Thereafter, the often-separate history of both territories is explored: how their governments' policies promoted different identities and responses to the Depression, Second World War and constitutional relationships with Britain. The background to/nature of the Troubles (1969-1998) feature alongside various British/Irish/other political and cross-community peace initiatives culminating in the Good Friday Agreement in 1998.
