Who is the 'real' IRA? The Real IRA, the Continuity IRA, the Irish
National Liberation Army, the Official IRA and the Provisional IRA
have all assumed responsibility for the struggle for Irish freedom
over the course of the late-twentieth century. Yet as recently as
1969 there was only one Irish Republican Army which had attempted
to unify Ireland using physical force. Andrew Sanders explains how
and why the transition from one IRA to several IRAs occurred,
analysing all the dissident factions that have emerged since the
outbreak of the Northern Ireland troubles. He looks at why these
groups emerged, what their respective purposes are, and why, in an
era of relative peace and stability in Northern Ireland, they seek
to prolong the violence that cost over 3500 lives. Key Features
Exclusive interviews with members of all dissident and mainstream
republican organizations, all loyalist factions and security force
sources. Extensive archival research. The first scholarly analysis
of Irish republican division. Shows influence of Irish-America in
provoking dissent within republicanism.
