Northern Ireland

"This is an insightful and scholarly book, which skilfully examines recent changes in the political dynamics of Northern Ireland. The author provides a detailed analysis of the leading protagonists and the key political issues which is thoroughly researched, incisive and thought-provoking. For anyone interested in learning more about why the peace process has stuttered so badly in recent years, this book is a must read."

Feargal Cochrane, Lancaster University

"Jonathan Tonge's knowledge of Northern Ireland is prodigious and his research is painstaking, sharp and detached. He has an eye for the telling comment. This book displays all these qualities. Not only does it audit the status of the peace process but it offers an agenda for moving politics forward. This is a must read for politicians and policy-makers as well as students."

Paul Arthur, University of User
