The Policing of Belfast, 1870-1914 examines the Royal Irish
Constabulary (RIC) in late Victorian Belfast in order to see how a
semi-military, largely rural constabulary adapted to the problems
that a city posed. Mark Radford explores whether the RIC, as the
most public face of British government, was successful in
controlling a recalcitrant Irish urban populace. This examination
of the contrast in styles between urban and rural policing and
semi-rural and civil constabulary offers an important insight into
the social, political and military history of Ireland at the turn
of the twentieth century. The book concludes by showing how
governmental neglect of the force and its failure to
comprehensively address the issues of pay and conditions of service
ultimately led to crisis in the RIC.
