He completed his PhD in 2019, which examined Irish republicanism after 1968. His first monograph: <em>The age-old struggle\u2019: Irish republicanism from the Battle of the Bogside to the Belfast Agreement, 1968-1998<\/em> will be published by Liverpool University Press in 2021. Based on wide-ranging primary evidence and 25 oral history interviews with republican ex-combatants,&nbsp;the book assesses political, social, tactical, and strategic differences within Irish republicanism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jack is a member of the Newcastle Oral History Collective, and was a researcher on our Foodbank histories project. Working with Silvie Fisch and Alison Atkinson-Phillips, the research has had an important impact on how we understand food poverty in 20th century Britain. Jack is also a researcher on the &#8216;Preston Black Lives from the Windrush Generation&#8217; being led by Professor Alan Rice (University of Central Lancashire) and Clinton Smith (Preston Black History Group).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Hepworth J.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/eprint.ncl.ac.uk\/267910\">&#8216;&#8221;We&#8217;re getting the victory we fought for&#8221;, we were told&#8217;: retrospective subjective analysis in oral histories of Irish republicanism<\/a>.&nbsp;<em>Oral History<\/em>&nbsp;2020,&nbsp;<strong>48<\/strong>(2), 68-79.<\/li><li>Hepworth J.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/eprint.ncl.ac.uk\/268705\">Between Isolation and Integration: Religion, Politics, and the Catholic Irish in Preston, C.1829-1868<\/a>.&nbsp;<em>Immigrants and Minorities<\/em>&nbsp;2020,&nbsp;<strong>38<\/strong>(1-2), 77-104.<\/li><li>Hepworth J.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/eprint.ncl.ac.uk\/267911\">Britain&#8217;s first migrant strike: migration, labour militancy, and racial politics at Courtaulds, Preston, 1965<\/a>.&nbsp;<em>North West Labour History<\/em>&nbsp;2020,&nbsp;<strong>44<\/strong>.
