A Nation of Politicians: Gender, Patriotism, and Political Culture in Late Eighteenth-Century Ireland - History of Ireland and the Irish Diaspora
Padhraig Higgins
The politicization of non-elites was driven by the Volunteers, a militia force that emerged in Ireland as British troops were called away to the American War of Independence. This book argues that the development of Volunteer-initiated activities - associating, petitioning, subscribing, and shopping - expanded the scope of political participation.
