After three decades of violence, Northern Ireland has experienced
unprecedented peace. This book, now available in paperback,
examines the impact of the 1998 Agreement which halted the violence
on those most affected by it - the Northern Irish people
themselves. Using public opinion surveys conducted over a period of
half a century, this book covers changes in public opinion across
all areas of society and politics, including elections, education,
community relations and national identity. The surveys show that
despite peace, Protestants and Catholics remain as deeply divided
as ever. The vast majority marry co-religionists, attend religious
schools and have few friends across the religious divide. The
results have implications not just for peacemaking in Northern
Ireland, but for other societies emerging from conflict. The main
lesson of peacemaking in Northern Ireland is that political reform
has to be accompanied by social change across the society as a
whole. Peace after conflict needs social as well as political
change. -- .
