The IRA and armed struggle

"Based on extensive interviews with former and existing members of the IRA, and a thorough analysis of primary and secondary sources, this book breaks major new ground in the understanding of the IRA and the Northern Ireland peace process. It also provides a rigorous evaluation of the personal and political consequences of the group's terrorist campaign." "The IRA and Aimed Struggle offers a provocative and new approach to understanding the IRA. It will be essential reading for students of Irish politics, the Northern Ireland peace process, and terrorism and political violence in general."--BOOK JACKET.
