Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

The course will deal with the history of political and social unrest, the anti-colonial struggle, the pro-British unionist violence and workers struggle on the island of Ireland from the United Irishman Rising in 1798 until the 21st Century. The seminar will be held in the English language. Oral and written contributions by students can be in German or English. The willingness to read texts in English is a pre-condition for entrance to the course. Following 3-4 introductory talks by the lecturers the students will give oral presentations.
