2014

AI-generated Abstract

In the period prior to the Famine, Ulster's Protestant community faced significant social, political, and economic changes due to the collapse of the linen industry, the activities of Daniel O'Connell, and the perceived neglect from London governments. This research examines the community's multifaceted responses to these shifts, particularly through their involvement in the Orange Order, which serves as a lens for understanding their attempts to maintain social dominance.

These challenges were created by the collapse of the linen industry, the campaigns of Daniel O’Connell and seemingly unsympathetic London governments. This book explores how this community, at all social levels, reacted to the changes that were occurring and which were considered detrimental to its position of dominance in society. This reaction manifested itself in a number of ways, one of the most important being membership of the Orange Order, and it is through the medium of this associational body that the response of Protestant Ulster is measured throughout this work.
