Policing for Peace in Northern Ireland cover

This is the first in-depth analysis of the transition from the RUC to the PSNI seen through the eyes of key figures, inside and outside the organization. It provides a fresh insight into the wider social and political context in which this change occurred and is a significant contribution to the story of the Northern Ireland peace process.

"This book makes an important contribution to an understanding of the profound changes in policing that have occurred within a relatively short period of time in Northern Ireland. It also contributes to an understanding of organizational change in general. I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in deepening his or her understanding of this complex situation."

- Rutgers University Review

"Murphy's close and detailed analysis provides a nuanced account of these important issues, and her work adds a valuable dimension to our understanding of the transition from RUC to PSNI. It will be of interest to researchers and policy-makers interested in the process of police reform in Northern Ireland and internationally and in the internal dynamics of organizational change generally." - Aogán Mulcahy, British Journal of Criminology
