This is a ground-breaking book filling a void in the study of the history of Ireland's diplomatic relations with Argentina/Latin America from the nineteenth to the twenty first century while, at same time, enhancing our understanding of the contribution Irish emigrants made to their new home through the post 1916 Rising period, the rise and fall of Juan Domingo Perón and his chaotic return in 1973, followed by the sinister, dark days of the civilian military dictatorship between 1976 and 1983 which ended in its collapse following defeat to the British in the Falklands/Malvinas war which the volume explores in detail.

A detailed study of the political relations between church and state in modern Ireland, this work is also an analysis of domestic politics within the context of Anglo-Vatican relations. This book assesses the relative political strength of both the British and the Irish at the Vatican and challenges 'the myth of English dominance over the Papacy'.
