Essay from the year 2019 in the subject History of Europe - Modern Times, Absolutism, Industrialization, grade: 1,3, University of Mannheim, course: Ireland since 1800, language: English, abstract: The so-called Great Hunger is not only the best-remembered famine but also the closest to us, with a distance of fewer than 170 years. The creation of new social and cultural conditions because of demographic decline, large-scale emigration and new economic policies lead to define the famine as a “watershed” in the history of Ireland. This essay discusses the question of what different reasons resulted in the big calamity and what consequences it had had, and has had and how much this led to a lasting change in Ireland.
