How the Troubles Came to Northern Ireland Peter Rose
Contemporary History in Context Series
What do they know of the contemporary, who only the contemporary know? How, without some historical context, can you tell whether what you are observing is genuinely novel, and how can you understand how it has developed?

The series takes important events or historical debates from the post-war years and, by bringing new archival evidence and historical insights to bear, seeks to reexamine and reinterpret these matters. Most of the books will have a significant international dimension, dealing with diplomatic, economic or cultural relations across borders. in the process the object will be to challenge orthodoxies and to cast new light upon major aspects of post-war history.
