ANTH 44338 - Ethnic Conflict in Northern Ireland

Institution:

University of Notre Dame

Subject:

Anthropology

Description:

This course analyses the ways in which British and Irish administrations have attempted to resolve or regulate the conflict in Ireland and Northern Ireland. After outlining the historical, religious and political foundations of the conflict, the bulk of the course will focus on the period following partition (1920-21). Attention will be paid to the evolution of the process leading to the Good Friday Agreement (1998), including responses to political violence, negotiating tactics, and the framework of the new constitutional settlement. Students will be expected to gain an understanding of theories of conflict regulation, nationalism and political violence, as they have been applied to the study of the conflict in Ireland.
