Sociology 378 - "The Troubles" of Northern Ireland

Institution:

St Lawrence University

Subject:

Description:

Since 1969, more than 3,300 deaths have been officially attributed to "The Troubles." The Good Friday Agreement of 1998 promisedcommitment to end factional hostilities in Northern Ireland. But the complex nature of the conflict continues to threaten this fragile accord. This seminar examines the historical, political, economic, religious, ideological and cultural forces that shape Northern Ireland's conflict. It examines the ways in which these forces shape, respond to and interact with identity and community, affect daily life and extend beyond the borders of Northern Ireland. Also offered through European Studies and Global Studies.
