Making Empire: Ireland, Imperialism, and the Early Modern World

Ireland was England's oldest colony. Making Empire revisits the history of empire in Ireland-in a time of Brexit, 'the culture wars', and the campaigns around 'Black Lives Matter' and 'Statues must fall'-to better understand how it has formed the present, and how it might shape the future.
