Challenging traditional narrow views, this unique work proposes to
rethink and reinterpret Ulster loyalism from the beginning of the
"Troubles" to the present day, by tracing its religious,
paramilitary, political, and community influences.The work examines
the core values of loyalist communities, the roots of violence, and
the shift toward peaceful coexistence with former enemies. Also
discussed are the DUP's claims that it represents loyalism's "true
voice" along with the complex and varying degrees of commitment to
the Crown, the Protestant Faith, and the British governance of
Northern Ireland. Lastly, it looks at how cultural expressions of
loyalist identity, such as poetry or cartoons, are being used in
the (re)construction of a loyalist memory. Written by a leading
expert on Ulster loyalism, the work is based on extensive
interviews with loyalists and loyalist literature to provide an
inside account of the processes of loyalist identity formation and
transformation. Drawing on political science, sociology and
cultural studies, it will appeal to anyone interested in Irish
politics as well as conflict and peace processes.
