This volume explores the meaning of republicanism in contemporary
Ireland. While this has often been identified simply with
nationalism, the book examines the connections, comparisons and
contrasts between Irish republicanism and other strands of
republican politics: the ideology and practice of official French
republicanism, the broader European and American civic republican
tradition and the contemporary revival of this tradition of
citizenship. Academics from different disciplines, along with
statesmen and politicians from different political perspectives,
are brought together to examine the relationship of historical and
contemporary Irish republicanism to the wider republican
theoretical tradition. The book analyses the variety of, and
changes in, political positions among those parties describing
themselves as republican in Ireland in the twenty-first century and
examines the possible relevance of the ideas of the broader
republican tradition for future politics in Ireland, in the context
of multiculturalism, economic globalisation and increasing regional
and transnational governance. It will be essential reading for
anyone interested in the ideas at work in the evolution of Irish
politics, North and South. -- .
