Description
Examines the Agreement and its implementation through the eyes of the four major parties - The Ulster Unionist Party, the SDLP, Sinn Fein and the DUP - and considers the role of smaller parties in the region. Each interpreted the Agreement in different ways and continued to use the situation to pursue their own distinctive goals and aims. -- .

ReviewsIt is the first book that I am aware of that so clearly and comprehensively dissects the evolving policies of the five largest parties, analysing the strengths and weaknesses of their approaches.
