Böcker av James Loughlin

The first major assessment of the British fascist and neo-fascist engagement with the Ulster question, from Rotha Lintorn-Orman's British Fascists in the 1920s and early 1930s, Oswald Mosley's BUF in the 1930s and neo-fascist Union Movement in the post-war period, through to the National Front and BNP during the Troubles.

A broad-ranging analysis of the relationship of the British monarchy with Ireland from 1800 to the present. James Loughlin demonstrates how this relationship was shaped by the personalities of individual monarchs and by government policies in Ireland, shedding light on the history of Anglo-Irish relations, the monarchy, nationalism and unionism.

These include:- the evolution of Ulster Unionism and the Nationalist and Republican traditions- the role of Britain- the increasingly important part played by external actors, especially the USASince the outbreak of the present troubles in August 1969, a thriving academic literature on Ulster and its history has emerged.
