Introduction 1. Locking Them Up: Internment, Prisoners of War and International Law 2. Keeping One Eye Abroad: Belligerent Internment and Diplomacy 3. Settling In and Earning Their Keep: Life in K-Lines 4. Breaking Out and Breaking In: Escape Conclusion: 'Not Breaking but Making International Law'?
Synopsis
Between 1939 and 1945, over two hundred German and forty-five Allied servicemen were interned at the Curragh military camp in neutral Ireland, after crashing or washing ashore on Irish territory. Their presence in Ireland caused the de Valera government a series of very challenging problems; Dublin was bound by international law to intern belligerent personnel who crossed Irish borders, but was also very mindful of its sometimes fractious relationship with Britain and the United States. De Valera chose a difficult and sometimes contradictory path, choosing to sometimes ignore and sometime implement international law, disregarding some of Ireland's obligations as a neutral, while consistently leaning towards the Allies in his operation of the belligerent internment system. At the same time, Dublin had to navigate an intricate relationship with prisoners of war held abroad - in Europe, Asia and Northern Ireland - which, at times, stretched Irish neutrality to breaking point., Between 1939 and 1945, over two hundred German and forty-five Allied servicemen were interned in neutral Ireland. They presented a series of extremely complex issues for the de Valera government, which strove to balance Ireland's international relationships with its obligations as a neutral.

    My statue was exactly as described, it was un-opened and in perfect condition! Totally wirth the price. Getting it shipped took a little long but the seller was very responsive when I messaged and sent me the tracking as soon as it was available. Plus they did a good job packaging it well enough that despite being banged up on the outside my item was completely undamaged.

    Graphic novel album was sealed, NM, great value. Seller was great and responsive to communication. Item initially did not arrive despite tracking and me calling USPS, and seller was willing to provide refund to make it right. Ultimately the package showed up days later, which was baffling; seller provided A+ customer service through all of this. Thank You!

    The basket is perfectly what I ordered and as listed. It came in the factory packaging and was perfect upon delivery. Thank you postal service lol. The delivery took way longer than listed though, it was listed to come in a week from purchase, but took a whole month. I had some concerns at first, but communication with the company was top notch and they were very professional and answered most of my questions satisfyingly. Just prepare for a longer wait than listed, but I got what I bought lol.
