Covering three centuries of unprecedented demographic and economic
changes, this textbook is an authoritative and comprehensive view
of the shaping of Irish society, at home and abroad, from the
famine of 1740 to the present day. The first major work on the
history of modern Ireland to adopt a social history perspective, it
focuses on the experiences and agency of Irish men, women and
children, Catholics and Protestants, and in the North, South and
the diaspora. An international team of leading scholars survey key
changes in population, the economy, occupations, property
ownership, class and migration, and also consider the interaction
of the individual and the state through welfare, education, crime
and policing. Drawing on a wide range of disciplinary approaches
and consistently setting Irish developments in a wider European and
global context, this is an invaluable resource for courses on
modern Irish history and Irish studies.
