The Politics of Northern Ireland cover

In this book, one of the leading authorities on contemporary Northern Ireland politics provides an original, sophisticated and innovative examination of the post-Belfast agreement political landscape. Written in a fluid, witty and accessible style, this book explores:

  • how the Belfast Agreement has changed the politics of Northern Ireland
  • whether the peace process is still valid
  • the problems caused by the language of politics in Northern Ireland
  • the conditions necessary to secure political stability
  • the inability of unionists and republicans to share the same political discourse
  • the insights that political theory can offer to Northern Irish politics
  • the future of key political parties and institutions.
