Jacobitism Scottish Gaelic: "Seumasachas" ] , Irish: "Seacaibíteachas, Séamusachas" ) was a political movement in Great Britain and Ireland that aimed to restore the Roman Catholic Stuart King James II of England and Ireland (as James VII in Scotland) and his heirs to the thrones of England, Scotland and Ireland. The movement took its name from "Jacobus", the Renaissance Latin form of "Iacomus", which in turn comes from the original Latin form of James, "Iacobus." Adherents rebelled against the British government on several occasions between 1688 and 1746.

Revisionism (Ireland) Revisionism in Irish historiography refers to a historical revisionist tendency and group of historians who are critical of the orthodox view of Irish history since the achievement of partial Irish independence, which comes from the perspective of Irish nationalism. For opponents, Revisionists are regarded as apologists for the British Empire in Ireland, proponents of a form of denialism and even in some cases advocates of neo-unionism, while the Revisionists on the other hand see themselves as positing a progressive cosmopolitan narrative opposed to a "narrowly sectarian" viewpoint.

Northern Ireland civil rights movement The Northern Ireland civil rights movement dates to the early 1960s, when a number of initiatives emerged which challenged inequality and discrimination in Northern Ireland. The Campaign for Social Justice (CSJ) was founded by Conn McCluskey and his wife, Patricia. Conn was a doctor, and Patricia was a social worker who had worked in Glasgow for a period, and who had a background in housing activism. Both were involved in the Homeless Citizens League, an organisation founded after Catholic women occupied disused social housing. The HCL evolved into the CSJ, focusing on lobbying, research and publicising discrimination. The campaign for Derry University was another mid-1960s campaign.

Loyalist Anti-Repeal Union The Loyalist Anti-Repeal Union was an Irish unionist organisation established in 1886 in Ulster. It was created by the most influential Protestant groups - landowners, businessmen, churchmen - in opposition to Home Rule for Ireland. The movement grew rapidly and was helped along by the support of Conservative Party MP Lord Randolph Churchill who had decided 'to play the Orange card'. (Essentially Churchill was trying to use Ulster unionism to weaken Gladstone's Liberal Party, in favour of the Tories . Churchill also famously said that the movement would receive support in England, and "Ulster will fight, Ulster will be Right").
