Peace in Ireland was not achieved when the Irish Free State came into being. Instead, the Anglo-Irish treaty of 1922 saw the start of the Irish civil war between the new nation’s provisional government and the Irish republican army.

On the 100th anniversary of the treaty and the Free State, our panel will discuss whether civil war was inevitable and how its impacts are still being felt to this day.

Joining the discussion will be author Jan Carson, whose latest book, The Raptures, is set during The Troubles, and Julieann Campbell, writer of On Bloody Sunday: A New History of the Day and its Aftermath by the People Who Were There.
