	Celebrating 1916 - Indymedia Ireland
		The 1916 rebellion was a blow against imperialism which scandalised to the Home Rule leaders and terrified the respectable classes.
		The 1916 Proclamation was a mildly radical document but there is no evidence that its promise ‘to cherish all the children of the nation equally’ has had any impact on modern Ireland.

		By the terms of the treaty, all of Ireland except the six counties constituting Northern Ireland was to receive dominion status identical with that of Canada.

	Ireland to mark 1916 Dublin insurrection - Boston.com
		The timing and scale reflect a recognition that, with Northern Ireland's bloodshed ebbing, it's again safe to celebrate the memory of that earlier bloodshed -- that an event linked in the public mind to the outlawed Irish Republican Army can be reclaimed for the whole nation.

		The Taoiseach's announcement late last year that the traditional 1916 parade past Dublin's GPO is to be reinstated for this year's 90th anniversary, came after over three decades of dispute over how the physical force tradition represented by the Rising should be marked, in the light of the violence in Northern Ireland.
		She had a strong impression that to its enemies, "both in Ireland and abroad, Irish nationalism looked like a version of the imperialism it opposed" and that it favoured "the domination of one cultural and ethnic tradition over others.
		She said that because this year was the 90th anniversary of both the 1916 Rising and the Battle of the Somme, it had "the potential to be a pivotal year for peace and reconciliation, to be a time of shared pride for the divided grandchildren of those who died whether at Messines or in Kilmainham".

	Review: The IRA at War 1916-1923
		Inside Ireland the historicisation of the Revolution was problematised and impeded by the onset of violence north (and sometimes south) of the border.
		The problem is one of proximity: revolution in Ireland (or at least the Provisionals’ attempt at it) was a contemporary experience for historians writing in recent decades.
		As part of the United Kingdom, Ireland was then a part of an increasingly democratic political system: one which excluded no competitors, granted considerable freedom of speech, was relatively free of corruption, and allowed new anti-establishment parties to emerge and wield power’ (p.16).

	The 1916 insurrection in Ireland and class struggle in the War of Independence - Ireland / Britain History - Anarkismo
		In April 1916 in Dublin a combination of nationalist volunteers and a syndicalist union militia (Irish Citizens Army) seized control of key building in the centre of the city and declared a republic.
		This article is an anarchist analysis of the 1916 insurrection and the war of independence in the context of the struggle for socialism in Ireland and internationally.
		The 1916 proclamation says very little about the sort of Ireland the rebels wanted to see. This has allowed every party in the south to claim to stand in its tradition in the 90 years since it was first read out.

		The parade was suspended after widespread conflict broke out in Northern Ireland in the summer of 1969, and the Provisional Irish Republican Army said it was carrying the mantle of the 1916 rebels.
		But it was what later happened in the other six counties, which make up Northern Ireland, that made the Irish Republic reluctant to celebrate what for the Irish is their battle of Lexington and Concord.
		President Mary McAleese, a native of Northern Ireland, touched off controversy in January when she gave a speech suggesting that the Rising gave rise to the affluent, secular and increasingly diverse society that Ireland has become.But she seemed to acknowledge that her speech would provoke arguments throughout Ireland's sitting rooms, kitchens, and pubs.
