Description

Breaking Peace: Brexit and Northern Ireland by Feargal Cochrane The centenary of Northern Ireland's existence in 2021 marks a significant moment in its history, but one event has jeopardised its very existence more than any other: Brexit. Since 2016, the political landscape in Northern Ireland has become increasingly complicated, with negotiations and uncertainty destabilising the devolved institutions established after the Good Friday Agreement. The border issue has taken on an existential significance, becoming a marker of identity as much as a reminder of violent conflict from the past. This insightful book explores how Brexit negotiations have had such a profound impact on politics in Northern Ireland, opening up old wounds and bringing contested identities back to the forefront of debate. Hardcover, 288 pages, published in 2020.
