The failure of the Northern Ireland peace process

the long version

"This book is a surprisingly broad study of the Northern Ireland conflict and peace process, with an unusual and contentious hypothesis, though one ultimately likely to prove useful even to those who disagree with it." "The book also addresses much-discussed wider controversies, such as debates surrounding immigration, terrorism and September 11th, and national identity. It addresses these issues with unorthodox conclusions, and here too the book is guaranteed to be of interest to intelligent non-specialists as well as to academics and policy makers."--BOOK JACKET.
