Lost in transformation

violent peace and peaceful conflict in Northern Ireland

Audra Mitchell

Abstract

Peace interventions can promote violence, whilst conflict may be a crucial means for constraining and preventing it. This book explores these statements, re-thinking the relationships between peace, conflict and violence. From this perspective it reinterprets several phenomena that challenge the 'peace process' in Northern Ireland.
