Working-Class Unity in Belfast's 1932 Outdoor Relief Riots
Seán Mitchell
Northern Ireland’s economy was decimated in the late 1920s, with unemployment rising to 40 per cent and those out of work forced to sign on for Outdoor Relief, a pittance given in return for manual labour. Mitchell gives a complete account of ‘relief’ programmes in the North, the reaction of the unemployed in the Outdoor Relief Strike and the ensuing riots – a show of working-class unity in a city usually associated with sectarian violence.
