Academica Press Reflections on Liberty, Democracy and the Union: 20 (Irish Research Studies)

This book collects the finest writings of one of Northern Ireland's men of principle reflecting on liberty, Union, North-South relations and the nature of political integration and alienation. These studies on political liberty and the future of Ireland have never been published before in a single volume. Several of those dealing with the IRA have never been published before. McCartney is a life-long resident of Ulster, and has been a passionate advocate for reason and restraint in the province. His principled stand against terrorism by both extremes in Northern Ireland has been lauded by many, including Conor Cruise O'Brien, Lady Thatcher, John Major and Bertie Ahearn, the Irish Prime Minister.
