Download or read book Bloody Sunday and the Rule of Law in Northern Ireland written by D. Walsh and published by Springer. This book was released on 2000-03-01 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on original research into explosive evidence which had been concealed for twenty-five years, this book offers a devastating critique of the official Widgery Inquiry into the massacre of innocent and unarmed civilians by British soldiers on Bloody Sunday. It exposes the Inquiry as a gross denial of justice and the rule of law. Expert analysis of the subordination of law to security policy in Northern Ireland reveals that the Bloody Sunday experience is an integral part of a sustained pattern. Belated prospects for a restoration of justice and the rule of law are found in the Good Friday Peace Agreement and the unprecedented establishment of a second Tribunal of Inquiry into Bloody Sunday.
Download or read book Architecture Space and Memory of Resurrection in Northern Ireland written by Mohamed Gamal Abdelmonem and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-04-25 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Northern Ireland has a complex urbanism with multilayered socio-spatial politics. In this environment, issues of communication, self-representation and expression of identity are central to the experience of urban space and architecture where the dichotomy of division and shared living are spatially exercised in everyday life. Unlike other studies in the area, this book focuses on the everyday experiences of local communities in both public and private spheres - issues of ‘shareness’ - challenging conventional approaches to divided cities. The book aims to layer its narratives of architectural and social developments as an urban experience in post-conflict settings over the past two decades.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Northern Ireland moves from conflict to tentative peace, ongoing violence and unrest underline that the province remains a turbulent and troubled society. This book brings together contributions from those directly affected by the Troubles who work for peace and reconciliation in their communities. The issues they raise are given poignancy and power by being grounded in human experience, and provide a necessary starting point for exploring the tensions which arise in the struggle to reconcile forgiveness and remembrance in order to create a more purposeful and meaningful future. They have important implications not only for Northern Ireland but also for other societies emerging from conflict.

Download or read book Telling Stories of Pain and Hope written by Mary Elizabeth Lange and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-07 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The histories of South Africa and Ireland have been tumultuous and traumatic. Both countries have experienced political repression, sectarian violence and oppression that still impact the spiritual well-being of people today. Their parallel histories are of colonialism, displacement and division, and a fight for land and sovereignty. Both countries have embarked on a process of healing and reconciliation, yet there is an ongoing struggle for reparation and/or reversal of previous injustices. Recognising that museums of the 21st century have the potential to contribute to catharsis and mutual understanding, this book reflects on selected museums in South Africa and Ireland that commemorate the pain of the past and the hope for the future. The primary focus of the book is the way in which museum guides, curators and managers share their stories and the stories of their ancestors, and the stories of other people’s ancestors who were caught up in the conflict while interweaving the stories of the authors as well.

Download or read book Comparative Spatial Deprivation in Ireland written by Sally Cook and published by Combat Poverty Agency. This book was released on 2000 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study analyses the spatial dimensions of deprivation in Ireland. Despite the economic boom in the Republic of Ireland, the number of poor people has remained high. There is a danger that the ongoing hype about the Celtic Tiger could serve to distract from the urgency of the situation. The high average prosperity masks massive internal inequality. This raises important questions about the nature and causes of poverty and social deprivation; in particular, there is a need for a greater understanding of the geographical dimensions of poverty and deprivation. The main aim of this report is to undertake a detailed analysis of socio-economic indicators at small-area level for all of Ireland, adopting a common methodology for both North and South.
Download or read book Derry City written by Margo Shea and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2020-06-25 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derry is the second largest city in Northern Ireland and has had a Catholic majority since 1850. It was witness to some of the most important events of the civil rights movement and the Troubles. Derry City examines Catholic Derry from the turn of the twentieth century to the end of the 1960s and the start of the Troubles. Plotting the relationships between community memory and historic change, Margo Shea provides a rich and nuanced account of the cultural, political, and social history of Derry using archival research, oral histories, landscape analysis, and public discourse. Looking through the lens of the memories Catholics cultivated and nurtured as well as those they contested, she illuminates Derry’s Catholics’ understandings of themselves and their Irish cultural and political identities through the decades that saw Home Rule, Partition, and four significant political redistricting schemes designed to maintain unionist political majorities in the largely Catholic and nationalist city. Shea weaves local history sources, community folklore, and political discourse together to demonstrate how people maintain their agency in the midst of political and cultural conflict. As a result, the book invites a reconsideration of the genesis of the Troubles and reframes discussions of the “problem” of Irish memory. It will be of interest to anyone interested in Derry and to students and scholars of memory, modern and contemporary British and Irish history, public history, the history of colonization, and popular cultural history.
Download or read book Pax Britannica British Counterinsurgency In Northern Ireland 1969 1982 written by Montgomery McFate and published by Wilberforce Codex. This book was released on 2014-12-22 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British forces conducted operations short of war in Northern Ireland for twenty-five years, yet they were unable to defeat the Provisional Irish Republican Army (PIRA). In this heretofore unpublished dissertation from 1994, McFate identifies how certain cultural, legal, and political factors contributed to the longevity of violence in Northern Ireland. Viewing counterinsurgency as a self-reproducing cultural system with its own complex logic, McFate argues that limitations on violence prescribed by the counterinsurgency principle of minimum force paradoxically resulted in a very high degree of sustainability of conflict. Certain other factors—such as emergency security legislation, reverence of military competence, and geo-strategic compression of violence within a cordon sanitaire—enabled normalization and reproduction of the conflict. In opposition to this order, the 1981 Republican hungerstrikes used the silence of the body to incriminate the state, 'embodying' a resistance to the war system of counterinsurgency.
Download or read book Emmanuel written by Lilian White and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This powerful story during World War II begins in the Dutch East Indies, where Ruth and Kareen Van-derwal are sex slaves of the Japanese. The twins must escape! So starts this far-reaching drama of love, murder, greed, power, hate, sex, and scientists experimenting with genetics in this apocalyptic science fiction novel that ends in the present day. Scientists from La Fatal develop intelligent half-men and half-animals. Products of genetic manipulation, these creatures extract their "special" revenge by ripping out the throats of their enemies and by blowing up laboratories after other half-creatures are taken, tortured, and murdered. In an effort by nations to grab global control, the competing influences include astrology, terrorism, superpowers, Christianity, the Islamic Movement, steamy spies and assassins, the Central Intelligence Agency, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, covert operations, the underworld, and incredible savagery. Could Emmanuel have the answers? Or, do the intelligent half-men and half-animals hold the secrets? Or, do both of them? Brilliantly written, spellbinding, suspenseful, and enormously entertaining, this book exquisitely captures the spirit of the United States, Scotland, London, Australia, Africa, Europe, Russia, Ireland, and China as the story spans the globe. Emmanuel is a masterpiece! Novelist Lilian White is from Queensland, Australia. She was formerly a nurse and an English tutor. Filmmakers in the United States are currently considering her novel In Love's Time. Publisher's website: http: //sbpra.com/LilianWhite
