Abstract:
The physical boundary (‘the border’) between Northern Ireland and the rest of Ireland has featured as a crucial part in relationships across the island, not least in the negotiations between the UK and the EU over Brexit. Under the Anglo-Irish Treaty of December 1921, a Boundary Commission was established with Professor Eoin MacNeill as the representative of the Irish Free State. It started its work after the civil war in the Irish Free State (1922-23) had ceased. It almost achieved its objective of a revised border. With the agreement of all sides, the major source of data was religion in the 1911 Census, but individual returns were not made available to the Commission. The areas agreed for transfer involved large majorities of Catholics to the Free State and large majorities of Protestants to the North. The only exception was the Laggan in northeast Donegal, an area with a small Protestant majority. At the last moment MacNeill withdrew, the Commission could not produce a unanimous report, therefore its report was unenforceable and it remained secret for over 40 years. The 1911 Census forms became available in the new millennium permitting detailed examination of the Laggan. This paper addresses the outcomes of the Commission’s work and questions whether there was a particular problem which caused MacNeill to withdraw. Speculation on MacNeill’s activity in this exercise is offered and related to his official reasons for sinking the Commission.

Abstract:
Relief was the dominant response of northern loyalists and Orangemen to the tripartite agreement of December 1925, which confirmed the border as defined in 1920. A year later, when the Prime Minister visited Newry to preside over the Grand Orange Lodge of County Down, he and ‘Lady Craig were made the recipients of very handsome presents from the Loyalists and Orangemen of Newry and District in recognition of valuable services in connection with the settlement of the Boundary question’. The agreement promised to end fourteen years of uncertainty, during which the frontier of loyal Ireland had contracted to a point where it seemed barely defensible. Under relentless pressure from successive governments as well as nationalists, the opponents of Irish self-government had effectively abandoned hope for the three southern provinces in 1911, and for the three Ulster counties with large Catholic majorities in 1916. The survival of the Irish Free State remained in doubt until 1923, and the incredibly vague terms for the proposed boundary commission created justifiable fear among loyalists that further attempts would be made to cripple the northern state by massive territorial transfers. Craig’s great success, apart from stifling the northern civil war in June 1922, was to hold the line of the six counties until Cosgrave’s government acknowledged the fait accompli.

Abstract:
This research examines the significance of the Irish Boundary Commission 'episode' (July 1924 to December 1925) for Northern Ireland's nationalists. It tests the thesis that the inter-governmental agreement following the Commission's collapse in late 1925 - the agreement which cemented the 1920 border - was 'the key foundational moment' for the northern minority between December 1925 and 1939. Some writers view the episode as an important development in a larger story about partition generally: others recognise its deep significance for northern nationalists. But the literature says little about the construction and development of (often competing) nationalist narratives which flowed from it. There is no in-depth analysis of how it came to be remembered and shaped mind sets. The research interrogates, integrates and deploys archival material to produce a finer-grained reading of the period; and shows how arrangement of memories underpins narrative development. The dissertation considers how narratives about 1924/25 subsequently featured in political and popular discourse. In explaining the political culture which developed, it explores the relationships between the principal nationalist influences in the north and the two main political parties in the Irish Free State. The later chapters devote particular attention to the increasingly troubled relationship between border nationalists (especially in Fermanagh and Tyrone) and the• early Fianna Fail governments, led by de Valera. The research comments on clerical influence and engagement; and underscores the strength of the press in reinforcing cultural messages and values, and in fostering a sense of community. It offers an interpretation of why and how narratives about late 1925 so powerfully shaped the northern minority's attitudes and responses in later years. The dissertation concludes that, for northern nationalists, the episode, culminating in the December 1925 pact, had remained the organising principle in their political culture.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the political and textual transformations of the Belfast Telegraph, the Irish News, and the Belfast News Letter in the twentieth century. It discusses the creation and expression of separate forms of national and editorial identities in regard to the northern Unionist-leaning Telegraph and News Letter, and the nationalist Irish News. All three would eventually be transformed by their reportage of the World War, and the later Troubles. Describing the enduring popularity of all three papers as platforms for political expressions across the spectrum of twentieth century Irish history and politics, it argues that their longevity speaks to the success of their readjustments during these tumultuous years. Drawing on archives in the National Library of Ireland and the Belfast Central Library, the chapter includes case studies focusing on how each paper reported the failure of the Boundary Commission in 1925, the Belfast Blitz in 1941, and the IRA Ceasefire in 1994.

Abstract:
RRThis chapter clarifies the concept of partition, and then evaluates the partition of Ireland, comparing it with the colonial partitions of Palestine and British India, as well as other cases. Types of partition are carefully distinguished, and explanations for their emergence are evaluated, as well as the justifications that usually accompany them. The actual partition of Ireland is appraised against potentially fairer partitions. The failure of the Irish Boundary Commission provided for in the Treaty of 1921 ratified by the Westminster and Dublin parliaments is explained. An assessment is made of the degree to which fraud and deceit occurred in the making of the treaty that specified how partition might be modified.
