On the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Northern Ireland Troubles',
Ulster's once dominant unionists are an increasingly alienated
people. In this timely assessment of the prospects for peace, Steve
Bruce examines the embittered world-view of two key sections of
Ulster unionism: the loyalist terrorists and the evangelical
supporters of Ian Paisley. To get to the heart of the unionist
position Bruce asks how they see the last twenty-five years, what
they want from the future, what they think they will get, what they
will accept, and what they will fight to oppose. He describes the
Troubles as a deeply entrenched ethnic conflict. He argues that a
failure to appreciate the strength of Loyalist identity has
prevented a proper understanding of the Troubles and that continued
neglect of the majority makes strategies for peace pointless or
counter-productive.;This book is intended for general readers
interested in the Northern Ireland situation; students and scholars
in sociology and politics; journalists, politicians, civil servants
concerned with the future of Northern Ireland.
