He readdresses-and at times redresses-the well- established, but somewhat inaccurate, conclusion that Easter Week 1916 was the major factor in radicalizing nationalist Ireland. This book provides a more nuanced and gradualist account of a transfer of allegiance: how fears of conscription aroused the bitterness and mistrust of civilian populations from August 1914 onwards. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e By re-situating the Irish Revolution in a global history of empire and anti-colonialism, this book contributes new evidence and new concepts. Destenay convincingly argues that the fears of conscription have been neglected by Irish historiography and this book offers a fresh appraisal of this important period of history.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEmmanuel Destenay is Associate Researcher at Sorbonne University, France.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 272\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.57 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 19, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53807730196813,"sku":"9781350266599","price":85.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/3304\/7117\/files\/Phht17hAAN9781350266599.webp?v=1777498244","url":"https:\/\/belfastbooks.us\/products\/conscription-us-intervention-and-the-transformation-of-ireland-1914-1918-divergent-destinies-paperback","provider":"belfastbooks.us","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
