from Part III - The Struggle to Contain the IRA: January 1976 to April 1998
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 March 2020
The conclusion presents the key points of my argument that the intelligence war did not force the IRA into the peace process. I summarise the primary political factors that led to peace. The conclusion also identifies key themes for further research, including the regional nature of the conflict. In addition, I explain why this book demonstrates that the practice of 'talking to terrorists' in Northern Ireland and the politicisation of Irish republicanism were both fundamental to the creation of the Good Friday Agreement in 1998.
