This book is a history of the Irish civil service and its response
to revolutionary changes in the State. It examines the response of
the civil service to the threat of partition, World War, the
emergence of the revolutionary forces of Dail Eireann and the IRA
through to the Civil War and the Irish Free State. Questioning the
orthodox interpretation of evolution rather than revolution in the
administration of the State it throws new light on civil service
organization in British-ruled Ireland, the process whereby Northern
Ireland came into existence, the Dail Eireann administration in the
War of Independence, and civil service attitudes to the new Irish
Free State. Based on a wide range of new sources, the book is of
interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students of Irish,
Imperial and Commonwealth history and of post-colonial, governance
and political studies as well as a reader with an interest in the
role of the State in the process of decolonisation in the 20th
century. -- .
