Rethinking Northern Ireland [PDF ebook] 
Culture, Ideology and Colonialism

Rethinking Northern Ireland provides a coherent and critical account of the Northern Ireland conflict. Most writing on Northern Ireland is informed by British propaganda, unionist ideology or currently popular ”ethnic conflict” paradigm which allows analysts to wallow in a fascination with tribal loyalty.
Rethinking Northern Ireland sets the record straight by reembedding the conflict in Ireland in the history of an literature on imperialism and colonialism.
Written by Irish, Scottish and English women and men it includes material on neglected topics such as the role of Britain, gender, culture and sectarianism. It presents a formidable challenge to the shibboleths of contemporary debate on Northern Ireland. A just and lasting peace necessitates thorough re-evaluation and
Rethinking Northern Ireland provides a stimulus to that urgent task.
