Northern Ireland: The Fragile Peace
Autor Feargal Cochraneen Limba Engleză Paperback – mar 2021
The complete history of Northern Ireland from the Irish Civil War to Brexit
“A wonderful book, beautifully written. . . . Informative and incisive.”—Irish Times
After two decades of relative peace following the Good Friday Agreement of 1998, the Brexit referendum in 2016 reopened the Northern Ireland question. In this thoughtful and engaging book, Feargal Cochrane considers the region’s troubled history from the struggle for Irish independence in the nineteenth century to the present. New chapters explain the reasons for the suspension of devolved government at Stormont in 2017 and its restoration in 2020 as well as the consequences for Northern Ireland of Britain’s decision to leave the European Union. Providing a complete account of the province’s hundred-year history, this book is essential reading to understand the present dimensions of the Northern Irish conflict.
