"This book examines the development of feminist identities among women active in revolutionary
movements and how this identity simultaneously contributes to and conflicts with the
struggle for women's emancipation. It is based on groundbreaking interviews with women
who were active in the contemporary Irish republican movement and activists in the
broader women's movement. The book explores how and why women became active in the
armed Irish republican movement including an intricate examination of their roles
within the IRA. It documents how the gendered experiences of the conflict and of participation
in republicanism fostered feminism in many women and how this newfound republican
feminism was positioned relative to the broader women's movement in the Northern Ireland.
This comparison raises significant questions regarding the limitations of autonomous
women's organising and its ability to be inclusive. "
