Censorship in the Two Irelands 1922-1939

Exploring the complex landscape of censorship between 1922 and 1939, the book delves into the contrasting approaches of Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland towards freedom of speech. It traces the historical roots of censorship from British rule to the Irish Revolution, highlighting similarities and differences in political, literary, and artistic repression. The narrative examines how both states managed dissent, particularly targeting Nationalist and labor groups, while also addressing their responses to foreign cultural influences in cinema and literature.
