Going right to the heart of the Irish Question, Paul Bew offers a
new interpretation of Irish politics in the critical 1912-1916
period. He re-examines the issues at stake in the home rule crisis
of 1912-14, arguing that the then leader of constitutional
nationalism, John Redmond, possessed a plausible political
strategy. Redmond's reputation has suffered from the critiques of
those who argue either that he failed to conciliate Unionists, or
that he lacked the requisite fighting spirit of militant
nationalism. This book contains much that is a sympathetic
reconstruction of Redmond's vision but it also acknowledges the
seriousness of the Ulster Unionist case. Bew analyses the debate
concerning land, economy, religion, language, and national identity
in the period, and ends with a discussion of the Easter Rising of
1916 which destroyed Redmond's party. He draws out the political,
cultural, and economic implications of this development and
examines their continuing effect on Irish history.
