The Northern Ireland Question: The Peace Process and the Belfast Agreement

Barton, Brian; Roche, Patrick J.

The book examines how the Belfast Agreement came about and its effect on unionism, nationalism, the paramilitaries, electoral support for local parties and the constitutional position of Northern Ireland. It also considers the extent to which the Agreement may be regarded as an exercise in political cynicism or the basis for lasting peace.
