Arranged On The Natural System. Preceded By A Linnaean And A
Dichotomous Analysis.
Visitors to Northern Ireland are often surprised by its confusing
mixture of day-to-day normality and general violence. When
internment was introduced in August 1971 , for example, hordes of
reporters were diverted from the world's other trouble spots to
Belfast. They were driven from the airport through sunny peaceful
countryside into a city busy with shoppers. Around the hotels
favoured by visiting journalists, there were few obvious signs of
disruption or violence. Yet less than a mile away, as they soon
discovered, people were being killed and injured and more than
2,000 families had been forced by intimidation to evacuate their
homes during the month of August. The peace and the violence were
aspects of the same reality. One was as characteristic of Northern
Ireland as the other. The co-existence of normality and abnormality
in such a small space is one of Northern Ireland's many
contradictions, and is rooted in the dynamics of conflict and in
the relationship between conflict and violence. The core of this
book is three communities in Northern Ireland. The experiences of
people living in them are not typical. On the contrary, they have
experienced much higher levels of violence, and live closer to the
conflict than most people in the province. All three have suffered
greatly from intimidation and the population movements which
followed it. It was for this reason they were chosen, for the
research aims to examine the process of community conflict through
its most violent expression, and the ability of people to deal with
its aftermath. What actually happens in a community which is
experiencing violent disruption? What are the mechanisms and
controls which enable a return to some sort of normality? The
emphasis throughout is on interactions and relationships at local
level. Discussions of "the Northern Irish conflict" often
concentrate on its political and international dimensions at the
expense of its operation at ground level. The intention here is to
examine the relationships between local interactions and these
broader dimensions. The author argues that long familiarity with
community conflict in Northern Ireland has led to the evolution of
effective mechanisms to control relationships between the two
communities; that these mechanisms are essentially local; and that
their efficiency and variety hold the key to explaining why a
conflict of such duration has not produced more serious levels of
violence. They amount to a major and effective safeguard against
the conflict expanding into a genocidal war.
