050 - Irish Nationalism v Globalism
from Illegitimate Scholar
I discuss with Buck Mulligan, Irish nationalism and British Imperialism. Starting with the Anglo-Norman Invasion to modern times, covering the influence of various invaders, the Irish plantation system, the potato famine, the Easter Rising, and the creation of the Republic of Ireland. We discuss the 'Troubles', the impact of paramilitary groups, and the Good Friday Agreements. Contemporary issues are also addressed; the effect of mass immigration on Ireland's demographics, potential economic forces, and the resurgence of nationalism in times of societal decline.00:00 Introduction and Overview00:00 Role of Nationalism in Identity Formation00:43 Irish Nationalism01:11 Anglo-Norman Invasion02:03 Protestantism and the Plantation System05:00 The Potato Famine/Genocide05:50 The Emergence of the Irish Republican Army (IRA)06:20 The Plight of Famine and its Impact on Ireland09:29 Michael Collins13:30 The Troubles25:28 The Good Friday Agreement31:12 The Modern Era53:04 Economic Factor55:21 Economic Disparity and Conflict57:53 Language and Cultural Identity01:01:16 The Influence of American Culture on Ireland01:04:18 Modern Northern Ireland01:06:40 The Future of Ireland01:28:20 The Impact of Immigration on Small Irish Towns01:34:46 Shift from Liberalism to Conservatism01:43:07Inevitability of Collapse02:04:52 The Rise of Nationalism in Europe02:11:33 Closing ThoughtsDiscord: https://discord.gg/KhJgpMj6JjPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/IllegitimateScholarAudio Podcast: https://pod.link/1650280020 Twitter.com: https://twitter.com/ill_scholarYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRH77S0fVLmAZU4xLnAxuvw
