Depression, decline and heritage recovery.Irish, Catholic and Scouse highlights the complex interplay of cultural and structural factors experienced by the most significant ethnic group in nineteenth- and early twentieth-century pre-multicultural Britain: the Irish in Liverpool. Drawing upon new approaches to our understanding of diasporas, this study emphasises the role of ethnic agency as Catholic migrants and their descendants made Irishness their own. Belchem looks in detail at those who remained in Liverpool, the hub of the Irish diaspora, and contrasts them with their compatriots who continued on their trans-national travels. This path-breaking study will be required reading for those who wish to understand the Irish diaspora and the cultural melting pot of nineteenth-century Liverpool.IrishEnglandLiverpoolHistory19th centuryIrishEnglandLiverpoolHistory20th centuryCatholicsEnglandLiverpoolLiverpool (England)Social conditions19th centuryLiverpool (England)Social conditions20th centuryIrishHistoryIrishHistoryCatholics305.89162042753Belchem John387197MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910809121403321Irish, Catholic and scouse4028902UNINA
