The Catholic Church and the Northern Ireland Troubles, 1968-1998
Until surprisingly recently the history of the Irish Catholic Church during the Northern Irish Troubles was written by Irish priests and bishops and was commemorative, rather than analytical. This study uses the Troubles as a case study to evaluate the role of the Catholic Church in mediating conflict. During the Troubles, these priests and bishops often worked behind the scenes, acting as go-betweens for the British government and republican paramilitaries, to bring about a peaceful solution. However, this study also looks more broadly at the actions of the American, Irish and English Catholic Churches, as well as that of the Vatican, to uncover the full impact of the Church on the conflict. This critical analysis of previously neglected state, Irish, and English Catholic Church archival material changes our perspective on the role of a religious institution in a modern conflict.

The Evidence Room
From out of nowhere there comes a sweeping onslaught of murder. A game of cat and mouse begins as DCI Henry Faulkner and DS Billy Cray are assigned to the case, leading the investigation into capturing this horrific serial killer. The murders begin, so grotesque in nature, mutilations that leave all involved stunned and riddled with fear. Tension mounts, as with each murder, no concrete evidence can be recovered. The pressure begins to cause ripples within the team. Faulkners boisterous and arrogant persona clashing with the demons of Crays troubled past leave the core of this investigation, at times, in tatters! Who is this serial killer? How can they elude and stay invisible for so long; like a ghost? Does this case have more of a story to tell than meets the eye? Is there a hidden secret, a detail that has gone unnoticed? Victim, upon victim.
Community Relations and the Troubles in Northern Ireland
Community relations policy has been an almost permanent feature in Northern Ireland since 1969, yet it has rarely been considered as an object of study. This book provides historical depth to its analysis, by documenting the various manifestations of the notion of community relations in public policy during the Troubles period. Drawing on a variety of written and oral primary and secondary sources, it offers a unique, rich perspective on the meaning and intent behind community relations policy at certain critical junctures. In addition, by examining this period through the lens of one policy, the book sheds light on important questions such as who intervened in policy-making during the conflict, who sought to influence the process and, eventually, who took the decisions. It also considers the varied roles played by community workers. This meticulous analysis reveals previously unknown aspects of the evolution of community relations policy and presents a compelling micro-history of policy-making and governance during the Troubles in Northern Ireland.
