Adam Kane is a BA Hons. Graduate of Carlow College, and is currently engaged in further study in the History Department at Trinity College. In this podcast, with Carlow Libraries’ John O’Gorman, Adam discusses the findings of his study of the R.I.C. in the county, and how it compared with others, namely Kilkenny and Cork. The role of, and attitudes to, the force prior to the commencement of hostilities in 1919 will be examined, and Adam will outline how, and why, these roles and attitudes changed. Also mentioned is the topic of the scholarship of the R.I.C., especially in recent years, and the issues that still demand further study and reflection.
