商品簡介
Kerr, director of the Centre for the Study of Divided Societies at King's College London, presents this analysis of the 1973 power sharing agreement in Northern Ireland and the political causes of its ultimate failure. Divided into sections, the volume examines the period of direct rule immediately preceding the agreement, the creation of the power sharing executive and its destruction, highlighting the failure of British policy makers to invest political capital in the structure and to reign in rogue Unionist forces bent on its destruction.
