Northern Ireland and the Politics of Reconciliation Zusammenfassung

Northern Ireland and the Politics of Reconciliation Dermot Keogh (University College Cork)

This collection adds to the extensive literature on Northern Ireland and Ireland by bringing together the leading academic and political figures working in the field and offering a comprehensive, multidisciplinary overview of the historical process. The topics discussed include the remote and proximate causes of the conflict, fresh developments within the two states on the island, the role of the Roman Catholic Church, the rise of the ecumenical movement and the impact of the 1985 Anglo-Irish Agreement on the triangular relationship between Dublin, Belfast and London. The volume concludes with an evaluation of likely impact of membership of the European Community on the conflict in Northern Ireland. The contributors to this book do not offer any easy solutions but provide a context in which the problem may be better understood by the international scholarly community and by the interested general reader.

Northern Ireland and the Politics of Reconciliation Bewertungen

'These are the ideas of the intellectual heavyweights who have shaped the thinking of a generation of governments and peoples about 25 years of conflict in Northern Ireland. Not surprisingly, it contains its share of thought-provoking gems.' The Irish Times
'This is a very interesting, well edited book containing many useful essays ... Experts such as Charles Townshend and Joe Lee are in good form; its cultural survey by Terence Brown is worth the price of admission.' Irish Studies Review
