The Northern Ireland peace process has been heralded by those who
participated in it as a successful example of transformation from a
violent conflict to a peaceful society. However, the Good Friday
Agreement ('the Agreement') negotiated by the British and Irish
governments and the Northern Irish political parties did not in
fact represent the end of the peace process; instead it offered a
template through which Northern Ireland could reach a sustained
peace. That template presented a programme for the return to
normality of Northern Ireland. This book explores whether Northern
Ireland is still an outlier from the rest of the UK, or whether the
Agreement's plan for Northern Ireland has been fully realised. The
book examines the implementation of the Northern Ireland peace
process as a whole. However, its main focus is on the impact of new
types of terrorism, and government responses to that new terrorism,
on the process of normalising Northern Ireland. The internal and
external factors that have impeded Northern Ireland's
transformation from an exceptional part of the UK to one that is
consistent with the political and societal features of the other
regions are analysed.It also considers the normalisation of
'post-conflict' Northern Ireland in the context of the expansion of
anti-terrorism legislation for international terrorism in the whole
of the UK. In doing so the book highlights the continuing use of
exceptional anti-terrorism laws in Northern Ireland outside of the
emergency for which they were originally intended, as well as
revealing the extent to which Northern Ireland's past
anti-terrorism laws have been re-enacted as permanent,
non-emergency legislation for the whole of the UK. The book thus
demonstrates the difficulties that transitional or post-conflict
states face in attempting to wind back extraordinary
counter-terrorism policies after periods of violence have been
brought to an end.
