This is the first book to examine the changes that have influenced
republican identity since the beginning of the "Troubles" in
Northern Ireland.Using a combination of empirical research and
literature, the book addresses Northern Irish republican identity
from three aspects: Catholicism, paramilitarism, and political
transformation. It examines how they have shaped modern
republicanism and how identity has shifted and adapted in relation
to these specific areas of influence.The personal interviews
conducted by the author with many republicans, including senior
paramilitary and political figures make clear that Catholicism has
helped shape republican paramilitary and political outlooks. This
is a factor that is hardly discussed in republican literature, even
though it strongly contributed to the development of the
Provisional Irish Republican Army (PIRA). Thus this is the first
book of its kind to trace the religious-paramilitary-political
linkage, providing a context for rethinking republicanism.A unique
work, "From Armed Struggle to Political Struggle "is essential for
students and researchers in Irish politics, conflict resolution,
and security studies.
