Book excerpt: Ireland had a foreign policy and a diplomatic service before there was an internationally recognised independent Irish state. The origins of the modern Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade lie in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs established as one of the first four government departments of the first Dáil in January 1919. This richly illustrated book is a history of Irish foreign policy, rather than an institutional history of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade itself (though the two obviously go hand in hand). It explores how a small state such as Ireland has related to the wider world, by examining how Irish diplomats and politicians responded to the challenges presented by the upheavals of the twentieth century and how this small European state engaged with the world, from the Versailles peace conference of 1919 to the globalisation of the twenty-first century.

Download or read book Ireland and the League of Nations 1919 1946 written by Michael J. Kennedy and published by History S. This book was released on 1996 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1923 to 1946, Ireland was a committed, though critical, supporter of the League of Nations. Under Cumann Na Gaedheal and the foreign ministries of Fitzgerald and McGillgan, the state's policy was that of a radical. Ireland constantly sought to uphold the covenant and further the work of the League in the face of great power criticism. This was recognised with the Free State's Election to the League Council in 1930. Under Fianna Fail, de Valera built upon his predecessors' achievements and Ireland became a mature and influential League member. By the early mid-1930s, the Irish were involved in nearly all of the League's most important projects; and the great powers, such as Britain, recognised Ireland's role as one of the influential 'small states' in the League. The late 1930s saw the League decline after Italy's invasion of Abyssinia. Ireland still supported the League, but in a theoretical manner, as de Valera steered Ireland towards neutrality in the looming conflict. This book analyses Ireland's policy at the League in Geneva and the development of League policy in Dublin against the background of the turbulent inter-war years. It examines the personalities and issues behind policy and analyses their execution in Geneva. It draws on analysis of previously unseen material recently released from the Department of Foreign Affairs archives. This book is a fundamental reassessment of Irish foreign in the inter-war period.

Download or read book Ireland s Magdalen Laundries and the Nation s Architecture of Containment written by James M. Smith and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2007-09-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Magdalen laundries were workhouses in which many Irish women and girls were effectively imprisoned because they were perceived to be a threat to the moral fiber of society. Mandated by the Irish state beginning in the eighteenth century, they were operated by various orders of the Catholic Church until the last laundry closed in 1996. A few years earlier, in 1993, an order of nuns in Dublin sold part of their Magdalen convent to a real estate developer. The remains of 155 inmates, buried in unmarked graves on the property, were exhumed, cremated, and buried elsewhere in a mass grave. This triggered a public scandal in Ireland and since then the Magdalen laundries have become an important issue in Irish culture, especially with the 2002 release of the film The Magdalene Sisters. Focusing on the ten Catholic Magdalen laundries operating between 1922 and 1996, Ireland's Magdalen Laundries and the Nation's Architecture of Containment offers the first history of women entering these institutions in the twentieth century. Because the religious orders have not opened their archival records, Smith argues that Ireland's Magdalen institutions continue to exist in the public mind primarily at the level of story (cultural representation and survivor testimony) rather than history (archival history and documentation). Addressed to academic and general readers alike, James M. Smith's book accomplishes three primary objectives. First, it connects what history we have of the Magdalen laundries to Ireland's “architecture of containment” that made undesirable segments of the female population such as illegitimate children, single mothers, and sexually promiscuous women literally invisible. Second, it critically evaluates cultural representations in drama and visual art of the laundries that have, over the past fifteen years, brought them significant attention in Irish culture. Finally, Smith challenges the nation—church, state, and society—to acknowledge its complicity in Ireland's Magdalen scandal and to offer redress for victims and survivors alike.

Download or read book Germany and Ireland 1945 1955 written by Cathy Molohan and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: German���±Irish relations have been characterised by a wide variety of contacts throughout the centuries. These included age-old religious and scholastic and, since the beginning of this century, military and economic links. This book sets out to explore a decade of these relations as yet undocumented. The time from 1945 to 1949 was a period of difficult decisions and complicated diplomatic activity following the end of the Second World War, with Ireland having to decide on the fate of over 300 German citizens in the country ���± soldiers, spies and diplomats ���± who were wanted by the Allies. The period after 1949 is characterised by the normalisation of relations with Germany on a political, diplomatic and economic level. These many moves towards stronger personal, economic and cultural links with Germany were among the first tentative steps taken in the primarily isolationist Ireland of the 1950s towards Europe.
Download or read book Friends and enemies written by Karen Garner and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2021-08-17 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This history of Anglo-American efforts to overturn Ireland’s neutrality policy during the Second World War adds complexity to the grand narrative of the Western Alliance against the Axis Powers, exploring relatively unexamined emotional, personalised, and gendered politics that underlay policymaking and alliance relations. Friends and enemies combines the methodologies of diplomatic history through its close reliance on archival documentation with attention to new theoretical understandings regarding the roles played by personal friendships and enmities and competing masculine ideologies among national leaders. Including, Winston Churchill, Franklin Roosevelt and Eamon de Valera, and their close foreign policy advisers in London, Washington DC and Dublin, as they constructed national identities and defined their nations’ special relationships in time of war.
