Synopsis

This study offers a brief introduction to the Northern Ireland problem and its proposed solutions since 1968, concentrating on five main areas: society trends and attitudes, loyalism and republicanism - the relevance of religious affiliations; economy - the effect of deindustrialization in a peripheral region; politics - the virtual absence of conventional secular politics; security, including the role of intelligence; and the international context - how competing nationalisms attract outside support.
