Northern Ireland

Clearly and accessibly written and based on extensive research, Paul Dixon's book provides a lively new introduction to the nature and politics of the Northern Ireland conflict and to successive attempts to resolve it. Attempting to separate "propaganda war" rhetoric from underlying realities and perceptions, the book opens up new insights into the objectives and limitations faced by the main competing parties.

A comprehensively revised and updated second edition of a lively introduction to the nature and politics of the Northern Ireland conflict and of successive attempts to resolve it.

Paul Dixon is Lecturer in Government, University of Ulster.
