The Long Road to Peace in Northern Ireland
The Long Road to Peace in Northern Ireland: Peace Lectures from the Institute of Irish Studies at Liverpool University. The bulk of the essays in this volume have been delivered as part of Liverpool University's Institute of Irish Studies Peace Lecture Series, 1996-2000. The book is dedicated to Torkel Opsahl, the international human rights lawyer, who headed up the 1993 Opsahl Comission in Northern Ireland and died tragically early shortly afterwards, just as he was taking up his new post as head of the Bosian War Crimes Commission in Geneva. With contributions from Senator George J. Mitchell, Peter Mandelson, Lord David Owen and Marianne Elliott among others, this text sets out to show how the drive for peace in Ireland has evolved, culiminating in the Good Friday Agreement. Through highlighting the lessons learnt in the former Yugoslavia and the Middle East, the book expresses the increasing need for compromise and "third party" diplomacy in order to have any hope of achieving a lasting peace.
