Not to be confused with
Chinese Blueshirtism.
Blueshirtism is an authoritarian unity, culturally far-right, ideology based on the ideas of 
Clerical Fascism in Ireland. The ideology is practiced by the short-lived political party Army Comrades Association, later called the National Guard, then Young Ireland and for the final time, the League of Youth, well known as The Blueshirts.
The ideology is named simply after the party that is mentioned before. However, the members of that party are sometimes nicknamed "Blueshirts".
History
The history will be mainly about the party itself that uses the ideology as it's basis.
The 1932 Public Safety Act in Ireland was suspended, lifting bans on numerous organizations such as the Irish Republican Army, along with some of the organization's political prisoners released. In 1932, Ned Cronin founded the party known as the Army Comrades Association. The party is for the Irish army veterans, according to their name. They believe that freedom of speech is being 'repressed', and now providing security at events at Cumann na nGaedheal, leading to clashes between the Irish Republican Army and the Army Comrades Association. It had more than 30,000 members by September, 1932.
Some of these members later joined the irish republican army leading to yet another split between pro treaty factions of the IRA and anti-treaty factions within the IRA.
The league of youth formed as a sub-division of this movement Eoin O'Duffy the leader of the Monaghan Brigade of the Irish Republican Army and a prominent soldier in both the Spanish civil war and Irish wars of independence would eventually abandon the movement for being too pro-british so Eoin O'Duffy become a Greenshirt instead.
