Inequality, Identity, and the Politics of Northern Ireland examines how the politics of threat and resentment, undergirded by persistent poverty and class and gender inequalities across Catholic and Protestant communities, shape dynamics of political conflict, while simultaneously giving way to critical subjectivities at the community level through which more transformative visions of “peace” may emerge.

“Curtis Holland uses a mixed-method case study to draw on data generated from forty-one in-depth interviews with Belfast community leaders and politicians and a content analysis of British and Irish newspapers. This wonderful, well-written book uses a constructivist and intersectional approach to analyze the impact of relational and ethno-social fields of power, resistance narratives, and class inequalities that shape local, everyday people’s agencies across and within their ethnopolitical groups in post-peace-accord Northern Ireland. This excellent study deserves a broad readership from academics, community activists, peacebuilders, policymakers, politicians, students, and those interested in the top-down and bottom-up dynamics of post-peace-accord societies like Northern Ireland.”
