| | Republicanism can also refer to the ideologies of any of the many political parties that are named the Republican Party. | | | The small minority that was actively opposed to all monarchy was largely discredited by the regicide of Charles I and later republicans strove to distance themselves from that act. | | | In England a republicanism evolved that was not wholly opposed to monarchy, but rather thinkers such as Thomas More and John Milton saw an monarchy firmly constrained by law as compatible with republicanism. |

| | While Republicans see British occupation as the bar to unification, leftist social democrats pinpoint the problematic relationship of unionists and nationalists as a bar to reunification. | | | The British Prime Minister rejected the commission’s proposal, insisting instead on elections to confirm the strength of the political parties' respective mandates. | | | Nationalists and Republicans believe that resolution to the political problems must include the democratic participation of all of the Irish people and that the negotiations depend on the political authority and legitimacy wielded by the Irish government. |

| | republicans are nationalists, whilst monarchists are not nationalists | | | The republicans who were most responsible for initiating this tradition were the two pivotal figures of mid-nineteenth century republicanism - the Scottish born Presbyterian minister John Dunmore Lang, and the native born politician and publicist Daniel Deniehy. | | | Thus, we should not be surprised to discover that the republicanism of the Australian Republican Movement and the Keating Government were avowedly minimalist. |

| | SDLP and NEW REPUBLICANISM |
| | The two essential tenets of Irish Republicanism to unite Catholic, Protestant and Dissenter in the common name of Irishman and to break the connection with England, have persisted as potent motivators of political engagement in Ireland ever since they were first expressed by the father of Irish Republicanism, Wolfe Tone. | | | As a result, the constitutional framework of the South lies essentially within the wider European tradition of democratic republicanism from where the fathers of Irish Republicanism found much of their inspiration. | | | Its principles and framework are the future for republicans. |

| | For traditional republicanism, the British being in Ireland at all was a sufficient raison d’etre to wage war. | | | The British aim was simply to defeat republicanism by excluding republicans and republicanism. | | | Those who see in Provisional republicanism a discontinuity with the republicanism that went before can readily understand that the Provisional Republican Movement’s acceptance of the internal solution contained within the Good Friday Agreement was not the act of treachery on the national question that more traditional republicans like to allege. |

| | Specifically, Mr Mitchell in a meeting with Republican Sinn Féin representative, Mary Ward, committed to meet a Republican Sinn Féin delegation in Ireland which was later refused. | | | The Provos especially fear the message which is pure ethical Republicanism that incisively manifests the disparity with the Provos-adopted Free State message, which they are touting as the revised Republicanism. | | | The goal of Republicans is the withdrawal of all remnants of British power from Irish soil and the establishment of our own unified state. |

| | Return of Criminalisation? |
| | Immediately upon entering the new 'H-Blocks' of Long Kesh, Republican Socialist prisoners, along with their comrades in the Provisional Republican Movement, went "on the blanket." They were political prisoners, not common criminals as the government labeled them. | | | In 1972 the British government recognized the political status of Irish republican prisoners under what was then called "Special Category Status." Republicans were segregated by political affiliation and held separate from the general prison population. | | | In an attempt to further marginalize the republican cause, the British have quietly reintroduced criminalisation within the Six Counties prisons. |

| | Those who assert that this period of history sees the death agony of Irish Republicanism, as it was argued above, overestimate the ability of the British and 26-County states to create and implement reforms and underestimate Irish Republicanism's ability to sustain and develop itself. | | | Where we can be confident is that Irish Republicanism has proved itself to have a progressive potential and be able to evolve. | | | Combined with the ability of the British and Southern states to address people's discontent through economic and social reforms, this has severely undercut Irish Republicanism's potential to develop. |

| | Thereafter, a popular working class platform combined the “natural rights” republicanism of Thomas Paine with “popular constitutionalism”, a crafty linguistic trick whereby radicals sought to place their demands for democratisation of the British political structure within a legal claim to their “right” to representation within the ancient constitution. | | | The regicide of the Civil War may be regarded as republicanism of sorts, despite being pursued within contemporary religious concerns. | | | Opposition to the crown was thereafter the territory of the extreme left of capitalism, largely restricted to the “Communist” Party (see, for example, T.A. Jackson's The Jubilee – and How from 1837 and continuing the old radical attack on expense). |
