Download or read book Partition written by Ivan Gibbons and published by Haus Publishing. This book was released on 2022-06-19 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gibbons uncovers the origins of the Partition of Ireland. The Partition of Ireland in 1921, which established Northern Ireland and saw it incorporated into the United Kingdom, sparked immediate civil war and a century of unrest. Today, the Partition remains the single most contentious issue in Irish politics, but its origins—how and why the British divided the island—remain obscured by decades of ensuing struggle. Cutting through the partisan divide, Partition takes readers back to the first days of the twentieth century to uncover the concerns at the heart of the original conflict. Drawing on extensive primary research, Ivan Gibbons reveals how the idea to divide Ireland came about and gained popular support as well as why its implementation proved so controversial and left a century of troubles in its wake.

Download or read book The Northern Ireland Troubles written by Aaron Edwards and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-09-28 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fully illustrated introduction, acclaimed historian Dr Aaron Edwards provides a concise overview of one of the most difficult and controversial actions in recent history. Spanning 38 years of the 'Troubles', the British Army's deployment in Northern Ireland (codenamed Operation Banner) was one of the most difficult and controversial in its recent history. Over 10,000 troops were on active service during much of the campaign, which saw armoured vehicles, helicopters and special forces deployed onto the streets of Ulster. In this book, Dr Aaron Edwards considers the strategic, operational and tactical aspects of Operation Banner, as the Army's military objectives morphed from high-profile peacekeeping into a covert war against the IRA. Using personal testimony from both sides of the sectarian divide, as well as insights from the soldiers themselves, he presents an authoritative introduction to the Army's role in the Troubles, providing expert analysis of Operation Banner's successes and failures. Updated and revised for the new edition, with full-colour maps and 50 new images, this is an accessible introduction to the complicated yet fascinating history of modern Britain's longest military campaign.

Download or read book The Caravan written by Delhi Press Magazines and published by Delhi Press Magazines. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aadhaar was originally pitched as a way to eliminate identity fraud in the delivery of public benefits. Today, its application far exceeds that purpose. Nandan Nilekani, the technology billionaire who was the prime mover behind Aadhaar, has said that “data has become the new oil,” and that “if we canrestructure data to benefit every individual and every business, then we can lead to enormous amount of activity and economic growth.” He has also said, “In the West, the identity business was privatised. That’s a much more unsafe model than when a government issues an ID.” But while Aadhaar is presented as a way to mobilise Indians’ data for the public good, the lines between those who run Aadhaar and those who profit from it are blurry. Also in this issue: Praveen Donthi on how the dilution of the SC/ST Act is reigniting Dalit anger against the BJP and RSS; Nilakantan RS on the deepening fault lines between southern states and the Indian union; Kamayani Sharma on October’s experiments with the Bollywood romance genre; Sanam Meher on what Qandeel Baloch left behind; Ross Adkin on how Brexit negotiations are raising uncomfortable questions in Northern Ireland; Senthil Kumaran on the conflict between humans and tigers in India.
