Book Description Paperback. Condition: Very Good. John Whyte has been studying Northern Ireland since the mid 1960s. In "Interpreting Northern Ireland" he provides a guide to the mass of literature and comment. In part one he surveys the research on the nature and extent of the community divide, examining in turn the religious, economic, political and psychological aspects of the issue. In part 2 he discusses ideological interpretations of the Northern Ireland problems, from unionist and nationalist to Marxist. In the final section of the book he surveys the various solutions that have been proposed and looks critically at what the mass of research has achieved. He suggests that if it has not achieved more it may be because it has sometimes asked the wrong questions. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR012340215
