Event details
The first CWSS ‘Research Exchange’ will take place at 1.30pm, on Wednesday 4 November, in Forum Seminar Room 1.
Lecturer in British and Irish History, Dr Gemma Clark, will speak to her interests in one of the Centre’s key research concerns – civil warfare. Drawing primarily on her 2014 publication, Everyday Violence in the Irish Civil War, Gemma will argue that interpersonal attacks and property damage served two key functions in Ireland, during 1922–23: to persecute political and religious minorities, and force land redistribution. Gemma will also use her case study, of Ireland’s relatively contained civil war, to open discussion on wider questions pertinent to the global, multidisciplinary study of this pervasive conflict type – questions around the civilianization of intra-state war, for example, and the relationship between micro- and macro-level actions, during insurgencies.
