Abstract:Over the last fifteen years, some form of peace has been constructed in Northern Ireland, a peace that today not only seems to be holding – just – but according to the commentariat, contains all sorts of meaningful lessons for other deeply divided societies at war with themselves. This report, made possible by the Airey Neave Trust and the LSE Annual Fund, asks what we really can learn from the history of peacebuilding in Northern Ireland, and critically assesses the applicability of the Northern Irish experience to contemporary counter-terrorism policy.
