Description: |
Examines the Agreement and its implementation through the eyes of the four major parties - The Ulster Unionist Party, the SDLP, Sinn Fein and the DUP - and considers the role of smaller parties in the region. Each interpreted the Agreement in different ways and continued to use the situation to pursue their own distinctive goals and aims. -- . |
Synopsis: |
Politics and peace in Northern Ireland analyses the complex and contradictory process of implementing the Good Friday Agreement. Using the lens of security dilemma theory, it begins with an original overview of the conflict, the Agreement and post-1998 politics. The book then explores post-Agreement Northern Ireland through the eyes of each of the four main political parties, showing how they tried to shape the course of peace implementation, and how implementation, in turn, shaped the fates and fortunes of the parties.Drawing on extensive original research, this book explains the promise and limits of the Agreement. It shows how and why the two sides' mutual insecurities repeatedly derailed peace implementation, and reflects on the likely direction of parties and politics in the future. This clearly written and up-to-date book will be of interest to scholars and students of recent Northern Irish history, ethnic conflict and peace-making. -- . |
