Democracy and Dissent in the Irish Free State
Presenting a new analysis of the difficulties in normalising opposition in the Irish Free State, this book examines the collision between nineteenth-century monolithic nationalist movements with the norms and expectations of multiparty parliamentary democracy. Smaller economically driven parties such as the Labour and Farmers' parties attempted to move on from the revolution's unnatural focus on nationalist political issues, while the larger revolutionary parties descended from Sinn Fin attempt to recreate or restore notions of revolutionary unity. The Irish revolutionaries' attempts to create a Gaelic, postcolonial state involved resolving tension between these two ideas.
This conflict made democracy and opposition hard to establish in the Irish Free
